BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – Texas A&M All-American Chennedy Carter was named Co Player of the Week by the Southeastern Conference on Tuesday morning, after averaging 27.5 points per game in a pair of wins last week for the Aggies.

Carter, a junior from Mansfield, Texas, was dominant in her return to the court after missing seven games due to an ankle injury. The Preseason SEC Player of the Year scored a season-high 37 points in a road victory over No. 25 Tennessee. Carter also sank 14 of 16 free throws to help secure the victory over the Lady Vols.

The two-time All-SEC honoree recorded 18 points off the bench, leading all scorers in a blowout win over Vanderbilt last Thursday. The junior did her damage against the Commodores in just 22 minutes of action.

Carter extended her record double-digit scoring streak to 57 consecutive games and locked in the 12th 30+ point game of her career.

This is Carter’s first SEC Player of the Week honor this season and the third of her career.
