For the second time in three weeks, freshman Sharmeela Ugbogbo was named the East Coast Conference Rookie of the Week, announced by the league this afternoon. Additionally, senior Colleen McCullagh and junior Bryce Merchant were selected to the leagues Weekly Honor Roll.
 
Ugbogbo dropped 14 points, 18 rebounds (12 defensive), four assists, and four blocks in 34 minutes in Molloy's 69-51 win over Franklin Pierce, career-highs in all categories. Earlier in the week, the Molloy freshman posted eight points and seven rebounds against Pace and five points and nine rebounds against Saint Anselm. 
 
McCullagh has continued to pace the Lions' scoring, topping 20-points in her last four consecutive contests and averaging 22.6 points per game this week. The senior, who played in all but four minutes over the course of three games, shot over 46.0 percent from the field, sinking double-digit field goals in two contests. McCullagh began the week with 25 points (10-of-17 FG), six rebounds, two assists, two blocks, and one steal at Pace. Against Saint Anselm, the forward added 23 points and four rebounds before closing the week with 20 points, seven rebounds, and two assists in a win over Franklin Pierce. 
 
Merchant posted a double-double in the Lions' lone game last week at Holy Family. The junior totaled 21 points, 13 rebounds, and a career-high five assists while shooting 58 percent from the floor and 6-of-6 from the foul line.
