Women's Basketball | 1/2/2020 12:00:00 AM



Goldey-Beacom's basketball teams received some early holiday presents with the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference honoring two of the College's standout athletes.
 
Freshman Jesiah West (Elizabeth, NJ) continued his onslaught in being picked the league's Men's Basketball Player, Rookie and Defensive Player of the Week.  It is the first time he earned each of these awards after being picked to the league's Weekly Honor Roll twice.
 
Sophomore Sarah Round (Northampton, England) also was honored in being picked to the Women's Basketball Weekly Honor Roll for a second time this season.
 
West averaged 21.0 points on 15-of-24 shooting, 12.0 rebounds and 3.0 blocks over two games.  He notched season bests of 28 points on 8-of-13 shooting and 17 rebounds to go with five blocks in Goldey-Beacom's 91-83 victory December 21 over Wilmington.  West also had 14 points and seven rebounds three days earlier in his squad's 92-61 rout versus University of the Sciences.
 
West, an exciting player who has given the Lightning extensive minutes and incredible play in the post, has notched two double-doubles and has scored in double figures nine times.  His 32 blocks this year already are tied for eighth on the school's single-season list.
 
Round averaged 13.5 points over two contests.  She scored 12 points on 5-of-10 shooting to go with three 3-pointers and two rebounds December 18 against regionally ranked University of the Sciences.  Round then had 14 points and four 3-pointers three days later in Goldey-Beacom's 70-69 victory over Wilmington.
 
Round has scored in double figures seven times this season, including the last four contests.  She also has shot at least 40 percent from the floor each of her last four contests and five times this season.
 
The women's team is on the road Thursday at New Haven, beginning at 5:30 pm.  Both teams return to CACC play Saturday at Caldwell with the women's game at 1:00 pm and the men's contest at 3:00 pm.
