Strick had a great game, but how can you name a player of the week at the beginning of the week? Yes, I think she deserves it, but aren't there other games this week as well?

Shekinna deserves this honor! She has always been a good player and this year she has improved and she will be an all-american.

Seems only fair to me. Shekinna will finish as one of the all-time great LVs if she keeps going at this rate, especially if she helps them get another championship. I don't see any weaknesses in her game at all.
