LA JOLLA, Calif. – UC San Diego junior
Erin Condron has been named The Big West Women's Basketball Player of the Week, it was announced by the conference office on Monday. The weekly honor is the first for the Australia native.
Condron set the Tritons' Division I single game record with 32 points at Long Beach State. The junior forward finished a career-high 14-for-16 from the free throw line—also a Tritons D-I program record—and shot 60 percent (9-for-15) from the field, recording her seventh double-double of the season with 13 rebounds against the Beach. Condron tallied her 20th double-figure scoring effort on Saturday against Hawai'i, finishing with 12 points, five rebounds and a career-best three blocks. For the week, she averaged 22.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, 2.5 blocks and 1.5 steals in 38.8 minutes per game. Condron currently ranks 28th nationally with a 55.0 field goal percentage.
UC San Diego is off to its best-ever start as a Division I program at 17-6 overall and 12-1 in Big West action. The Tritons will hit the road for games this week at UC Davis (Thursday, 6 p.m.) and at UC Riverside (Saturday, 4 p.m.). Both games will air live on ESPN+ with Saturday's contest also broadcast locally in San Diego on 97.3 The Fan.
