Despite several notable individual performances by America East basketball players, Jordan Reed took Player of the Week honors, albeit shared with Chris Pelcher of New Hampshire, the conference announced on Monday.
Reed, a sophomore guard who earned a program-best six AE Rookie of the Week awards last year, averaged 19 points and 14 rebounds in games against Cornell and Navy. He scored 25 points, including the go-ahead and-one layup, against the Big Red.
Pelcher, meanwhile, averaged 17 points, 15.5 boards and 3.5 blocks in New Hampshire’s pair of tilts.
Through three games, Pelcher leads the America East with 19.7 points, 16 rebounds and three blocks per game. Reed ranks fourth in scoring (17.3 ppg), second in rebounding (12.5 rpg) and steals (2.3 spg) and third in blocks (1.3 bpg).
