BOONEVILLE – After willing the Lady Rangers to a pair of wins over division-leading Itawamba and Northeast last week, sophomore forward Sara Lytle has been named the MACJC Women's Basketball Player of the Week.

Lytle had her best weekly effort in her Northwest career by averaging 27 points, 8.0 rebounds and 3.5 blocks per game in a pair of wins while shooting 62 percent (16-for-26) from the floor.

The Memphis (Evangelical Christian School) native has five 20-point games this season, including 29, 27 and 27 in three of her last four games and has posted a team-best seven double-doubles on the year.

The weekly conference honor is the first of Lytle' stellar two-year career. She averaged 11.1 points and 5.3 rebounds as a freshman and is pouring in a team-high 16.4 points and 8.7 rebounds per contest this season.

Northwest will close out its regular season home slate this Thursday, Feb. 11 against Coahoma at 5 p.m.
