CLEVELAND, Ohio - University of Akron women's basketball sophomore F Reagan Bass (Strongsville, Ohio) was honored by the Mid-American Conference as its Women's Basketball Player of the Week, the league announced on Monday.

Bass turned in a career game for the Zips scoring a career-high 30 points, including 16 in the fourth quarter and overtime, to lead her squad to a 85-76 victory over Coppin State on Dec. 29. She finished the contest connecting on nearly 53 percent from the field (10-19), while registering a game-high nine rebounds and two blocks, to go along with a pair of assists and steals.
