ORONO, Maine -- University of Maine women's basketball standout Liz Wood (Catlett, Va.) has been named the America East Player of the Week, as announced by the conference on Monday. Wood averaged a double-double over the past week with 14 points and 11 rebounds.
The highlight of the week for Wood came when she recorded Maine's first triple-double with 11 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists in a win over UMass Lowell. In that game, Wood also matched a career-high with six steals and added a pair of blocks. Wood bounced back from her triple-double showing with another stellar performance of 17 points and nine boards in Maine's road win at Stony Brook. Over the week, Wood shot 40.7 percent from the floor and knocked down six of seven free throw attempts.
The Black Bears return to action on Monday afternoon when they host Binghamton at 3:30 PM.
