WINTER PARK, Fla. – Nova Southeastern forward
Jasmine Wilkins has been recognized as the Sunshine State Conference Women's Basketball Player of the Week, presented by VALIC.
Wilkins (R-Jr., Miami) nearly notched two double-doubles, averaging 15 points and 9.5 rebounds to lead the No. 4 Sharks to a 2-0 week. She was perfect from the field, going 6-for-6, with 14 points, and added 10 rebounds for game-high honors against Lynn in an 84-53 victory. Wilkins then scored 16 points and collected nine boards in a 77-64 win over Palm Beach Atlantic. She added a season-high three blocks, three steals and two assists in the win.
For the season, Wilkins averages 12.1 points and a team-high 6.8 rebounds a night. She has tallied at least 14 points and at least eight rebounds in each of her last four games, and her field goal percentage of 63.6 ranks her second in the conference and third in the nation.
Wilkins becomes the third Shark to achieve this honor on the season, following teammates
Richelle Carach (Sr., Naples, Fla.) for the week of Nov. 11, and
Danielle Robinson (Jr., Fort Lauderdale, Fla.) for the week of Dec. 2.
