University at Albany sophomore Shereesha Richards won her second straight America East Player of
the Week honors on Monday.

Richards had a monster game, with career-highs of 28 points and 15 rebounds in possibly the program's biggest victory ever, against Marist, last Thursday.

Here is the league's release and the school's release.

Also, Albany native and Albany Academy grad Chris Pelcher was honored as the men's co-player of the week.

He averaged 17.0 points, 14.5 rebounds and 3.5 blocks in two games for New Hampshire this past week.
