Weber State's McCoy earns weekly award

OGDEN — Weber State's Kellen McCoy has been selected the Big Sky Conference men's basketball Player of the Week after leading the Wildcats to a road conference victory over Northern Colorado.

McCoy, a 5-foot-6 senior guard from Norman, Okla., poured in a career-high 25 points with eight rebounds, five assists and three steals in Weber State's 82-76 victory over the Bears on Thursday in Greeley.

McCoy hit 9-of-16 shots from the field, drained four of his eight 3-point attempts, and made 3-of-5 free throws. McCoy's 25 points were the most by a Big Sky player last week, as were his nine field goals made.

Weber State's victory was its sixth in a row and also moved the league-leaders to 6-0 in conference road games.

McCoy currently ranks in the top 10 in the league in scoring, assists, free-throw percentage, steals and 3-point field-goal percentage.
