ROSEMONT, Ill. – Indiana senior guard Shay Ciezki has been named the Big Ten Player of the Week after a pair of spectacular opening week performances against Lipscomb and UIC.
Ciezki averaged 28.5 points while shooting 52.6 percent from the floor and 56.3 percent from the 3-point line in a pair of wins for the Hoosiers to go along with 4.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.5 steals while holding +2.5 assist/turnover ratio. The Buffalo, N.Y. native was also a perfect 8-for-8 at the free throw line.
She led Indiana in both games this week starting with the season opener against Lipscomb on Tuesday where she had 22 points, three assists and five rebounds. Her new IU career-high 35 points pushed the Hoosiers to victory on Friday night over UIC on 12-for-21 shooting and connected on seven 3-pointers. Ciezki also added four rebounds, two assists and two steals against the Flames.
It marks the first Big Ten Player of the Week honor for Ciezki in her career and the first for Indiana since Sara Scalia (Nov. 23, 2023).
