INDIANAPOLIS -- After another great week on the hardwood – which included an upset on the road against a top 10 team – freshman Shareta Brown (Pontiac, MI/Grand Blanc) was named the Horizon League Player of the Week for the third time this season, announced the conference office on Monday, Feb. 13.

The award was one of several honors Brown received for her outstanding performance last week. She was also honored with the College Sports Madness.com HL Player of the Week as well as its High-Major National Player of the Week. CollegeSports360.com tabbed her to its Primetime Performers Honor Roll and she was also named the National Jesuit Player of the Week by the Jesuit Basketball Spotlight.

It is the fourth time this year Brown has been named the Madness HL Player of the Week and the first time she has been tabbed the National High-Major Player. It was the second time she earned JBS Player of the Week, while the CollegeSports360.com selection was also the first on the year.

Brown posted back-to-back 20-point games as the Titans ran their winning streak to five-straight games with victories over #9/9 Green Bay and Milwaukee.

The Titan rookie averaged 23.5 points and 7.5 rebounds in the Wisconsin road sweep, while shooting over 65% from the field and 77% from the free throw line.

She started the week by tallying 24 points and seven rebounds in the monumental victory at #9/9 Green Bay. She was 6-of-11 from the field and a career-best 12-of-15 at the charity stripe.

Against Milwaukee, Brown was plagued with foul trouble in the first half scoring just two points in six minutes of action, but came back to lead UDM from a one-time 12-point deficit with 21 points and seven rebounds in the final 20 minutes. She ended the contest with a game-high 23 points shooting 9-of-12 from the field.

She now has eight 20-point games on the year and has been in double figures in scoring in 21 of Detroit's 25 games. She is still leading the team in scoring at 16.8 ppg., and is top 10 in the nation in field goal percentage at 55.6%.

Detroit (14-11, 10-3 HL) is back in action this week as the Titans travel to face Wright State (16-9, 9-4) in a game that will have HL Tournament seeding implications on the line.
