Fredonia freshman forward Jenna Einink (Mayville/Chautauqua Lake) has been named SUNYAC Women's Basketball Player of the Week.
In a pair of SUNYAC wins, Einink came off the Blue Devil bench to average 22.5 points -- same as senior teammate Sabrina Macaulay (Newark, N.Y./Newark) -- while improving her season average to 12.5 points per game.
Her best work came in the fourth quarter at Brockport. Down by six to open the quarter, the Blue Devils erupted for 35 points. Einink had 13 of those points, plus two rebounds, four assists, and one steal. She finished with 19 points in 18 minutes of duty.
Against Buffalo State, Einink was credited with 26 points and 11 rebounds -- her fifth double-double of the season.
Einink is the first Fredonia freshman to receive a SUNYAC weekly award since at least the 2010-11 season.
