Scott earns 2nd consecutive WAC honor

Freshman center broke GCU's DI-era scoring record with 34 points
Grand Canyon freshman center Katie Scott became the first Lope to win WAC Player of the Week honors consecutively by claiming this week's award.
In the Lopes' only game last week, the Carl Junction, Missouri, native broke the GCU Division I-era record with 34 points in a win that moved the team to 7-1. She was 13 for 21 from the field in 24 minutes of play against Arizona Christian and added career highs in rebounds (13) and steals (five), giving Scott her second double-double this season.
"It's a huge honor to be named Player of the Week twice in a row," Scott said. "Our development as a team and on an individual basis is proof that coach (Molly) Miller's system elevates us all to our highest level of play, and any awards are truly a reflection of this."
Scott became the first Lope this season to win WAC Player of the Week last week after averaging 17.5 points on 72% shooting in two road wins.
"Sometimes, freshmen go through a little slump right at this time because they're no longer a surprise," Miller said. "Teams have film on them. They can scout them. So I'm really pleased with Katie's, not only composure, but just 'sticking-with-it' factor."
Scott is averaging a team-high 19.8 points, 6.4 rebounds and 1.8 steals in 19 minutes per game while shooting 60.2% from the field. She is 9 for 15 from 3-point range, giving her a team-leading 3-point percentage at 60%.
Up next, the Lopes welcome Park (Ariz.) to GCU Arena on Sunday for its final nonconference game. WAC play begins for the Lopes at home Jan. 8-9 against Tarleton.
