DeGraffinreed Named USC Aiken Athletic Department Student-Athlete of the Week

AIKEN, S.C. - University of South Carolina Aiken women's basketball player Hannah DeGraffinreed was selected as the USC Aiken Athletic Department Student-Athlete of the Week on Monday, November 23.

In USC Aiken's regular season-opening three wins last week, DeGraffinreed averaged 18.3 points and 12.0 rebounds per game.

DeGraffinreed collected a double-double in all three of USC Aiken's victories last week. Lethal from the field last week, DeGraffinreed finished her first three regular season contests in a Pacer uniform shooting 63.3 percent (19-for-30) from the field. She was 17-for-22 (77.3 percent) from the free throw line.

DeGraffinreed (Raleigh, N.C./Merrimack College) finished with 11 points and 10 rebounds in USC Aiken's season-opening victory over Anderson. She also dished out a team-high three assists on the night.

DeGraffinreed once again led the Pacers in their win last Friday against Glenville State. The sophomore transfer ended USC Aiken's first game of the 2009 Lady Jaguar Tip-Off Classic at Christenberry Fieldhouse with 27 points and 16 rebounds. DeGraffinreed was an impressive 8-for-12 from the field and 11-for-14 from the free throw line in the contest.

DeGraffinreed's third straight double-double performance came in USC Aiken's win over North Greenville in the Pacers' final contest of the 2009 Lady Jaguar Tip-Off Classic. The 5-foot-10 forward led all scorers in the game with 17 points. She finished with a team-high 10 rebounds in 34 minutes of work.

Degraffinreed's efforts over the course of the tournament did not go unnoticed as she was awarded as the Tip-Off Classic Most Valuable Player.

The USC Aiken Student Athlete of the Week award is a newly created award for the 2009-10 athletic year. Each week the USC Aiken athletic department is going to honor one individual from an in-season sport for their hard work and effort.
