Brown Takes Home Weekly Honor From College Sports Madness

CollegeSportsMadness.com Official Release

DETROIT -- Off her outstanding collegiate debut, freshman Shareta Brown (Grand Blanc, MI/Grand Blanc) was named the Horizon League Player of the Week by College Sports Madness.com.

Brown posted a double-double at Indiana State Friday evening tallying a game-high 25 points and a game-best 13 rebounds. She was also 9-of-17 from the field and 7-of-10 from the free throw line. She helped orchestrate the second-half comeback attempt finishing the second stanza with 15 points and nine boards.

It was the first double-double in a season opener by a Titan since teammate Yar Shayok had 26 points and 14 rebounds as a redshirt freshman at Oakland in 2009. It was also the first double-double by a true Titan freshman since Detroit Hall-Of-Famer Cassandra Pack had 23 points and 16 rebounds against Bowling Green on Nov. 25, 1983.

College Sports Madness identifies the highest impact players nationally and picks one from each conference each week. The website covers all aspects of college sports, from recruiting right up through the draft.
