The College of Wooster's Danyon Hempy earned the North Coast Athletic Conference's Player of the Week Award, as announced by the league office on Monday afternoon.

Hempy scored a co-team-high 35 points during a 2-0 week for the Fighting Scots, who posted a 78-53 win at Oberlin College on Wednesday and followed that up with a 73-65 win at No. 13 Wittenberg University on Saturday. The junior scored 19 points on 8-for-12 shooting against the Yeomen and added a team-high 16 tallies in the scoring column against the Tigers.

Hempy posted a new career-high in rebounds with nine at Wittenberg, and finished the week with 14 boards, six assists, four blocked shots, and three steals.
