A couple of career-highs has earned Jillian Duncan her first honour as Birchwood Automotive Group female athlete of the week.
Duncan, a sophomore forward with the Wesmen women's basketball team, had a pair of productive outings in two victories over the Brandon Bobcats.
Last Thursday, Duncan was 6-for-10 from the field, and scored a career-high 13 points in 22 minutes of a 77-65 home win over the Bobcats.
Four days later, in a rare Monday-night game for the Wesmen, Duncan posted her second career double-double, grabbing a career-high 13 rebounds to go along with 12 points in 24 minutes of a 74-57 win at Brandon.
Duncan finished the home-and-home series averaging 12.5 points and 8.5 rebounds, while shooting 12-for-22 from the field.
