Beers Named Pac-12 Freshman of the Week
January 02, 2023 | Women's Basketball
CORVALLIS, Ore. – The accolades continue to roll in for Raegan Beers.
Â
The freshman from Littleton, Colo. earned Pac-12 Freshman of the Week honors for the second time this season after racking up three more double-doubles against NC Central, USC and No. 12 UCLA.
Â
Beers is the sixth Beaver to win multiple freshman of the week awards since it was instituted in 2013-14. She joins Jamie Weisner, Sydney Weise, Mikayla Pivec, Taylor Jones and Sasha Goforth as Beavs to win multiple awards in a season.
Â
The Coloradan led Pac-12 freshmen with 22.7 points per game and averaged 13 rebounds per game. She set career-highs in back-to-back games with 14 rebounds against USC and 15 against UCLA.
Â
In Sunday's win over then-no. 10 UCLA, Beers scored 22 points on 8-of-10 shooting. She is one of just nine freshman in the country to score at least 20 points on 80 percent shooting. The career-high 15 rebounds gave Beers her eighth double-double, twice as many as any other freshman in the country.
Â
Beers and the Beavers head south this weekend to take on No. 15 Arizona and Arizona State. Friday's contest against the Wildcats tips off at 5 p.m. PT on Pac-12 Networks.
