TOLEDO, Ohio – University of Toledo senior guard Quinesha Lockett has been named MAC Player of the Week, the league office announced Monday.

Lockett was outstanding last week in helping the Toledo women's basketball team (12-3, 3-1 MAC) capture two big wins vs. Ball State and Kent State. She averaged a robust 29.5 PPG and shot 67.6 percent from the floor for the week, making 23-of-34 shots. In Wednesday's win vs. Ball State, Lockett scored 23 points while tallying five rebounds, four assists, three steals, and two blocks. She did most of her damage close to the basket, knocking down 9-of-11 two-point field goals.

The Omaha, Neb. native then turned in her best performance of the season at Kent State on Saturday, scoring a season-high 36 points on 13-of-17 shooting while going 6-for-6 from the free throw line. The Rockets and Golden Flashes were tied at 32-32 at halftime before Lockett exploded for 23 second-half points, making 8-of-10 field goals and 3-of-5 three-point shots. Her 15-point third quarter helped the Rockets outscore Kent State 26-12 and take a commanding lead. Lockett's 36 points are the most by a MAC player in a game this season and one point off her career-high of 37.

Toledo and archrival Bowling Green will resume the Battle of I-75 presented by Cooper Tires on Wednesday, Jan. 16 at the Stroh Center in Bowling Green. Tipoff is scheduled for 7:00 p.m.
