SCIAC Women's Basketball Weekly Release #11

REDLANDS, Calif. - The Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SCIAC) announced their Women's Basketball Athletes of the Week in the eleventh week of voting and University of Redlands senior center Hannah Jerrier (Canton, MA) was named the SCIAC Defensive Athlete of the Week.

Hannah has now earned recognition from the conference for the fourth time this season, once as the offensive athlete of the week and another three as the defensive athlete of the week. 

Since November 8, 2021, the Bulldogs have had six athletes named SCIAC Athlete of the Week across the eleven-week period.  They include Julia Balestreri, Angelina Roque, and Jerrier (4x).   

During the Bulldogs' 2-1 week that featured an 80-72 victory over Pomona-Pitzer, an 80-51 win over the University of La Verne, and a 74-70 loss to Claremont-Mudd-Scripps (CMS), Jerrier was terrific on defense. She notched 39 rebounds, averaging 13.0 per game, with 31 of those coming on the defensive glass. She also added three steals and eight blocked shots, four of which came in the loss to the Athenas.

Redlands returns to the court this Wednesday, January 26 when they travel to take on Occidental College beginning at 7:00pm.
