Crossroads League Release | TU Honors Page
AVON, Ohio – Taylor's Kendall Bradbury has been named the Crossroads League Women's Basketball Player of the Week for a league-best seventh time this season, the league announced on Monday.
Bradbury helped TU finish the regular season with a 21-9 overall record and a program-best 14-4 mark in Crossroads League play, posting averages of 23.0 points, 7.5 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game in Taylor's wins over RV Huntington and Grace last week. Bradbury scored 23 points apiece in each of TU's wins, while tacking on six rebounds and three assists in the Senior Day win over Huntington and nine rebounds and five assists in the win at Grace in the regular season finale.
With a three-pointer at the 2:08 mark of the first quarter in the regular season finale on Saturday, the All-American broke TU's single-season scoring record of 680 points, set by Liz Plass during the 2003-2004 season, and Bradbury currently sits at 695 points on the season. The junior forward also broke Gretchen Newhouse's record for most field goals made in a season (249 in 1993-1994) and has made 255 field goals thus far in 2017-2018.
The Highlands Ranch, Colorado native ranks third all-time at Taylor with 1,914 career points, and ranks second in NAIA Division II in scoring (23.2 points per game), 11th in rebounding (10.1 rebounds per game) and seventh in double-doubles (14).
The weekly honor is the eighth for Bradbury this season, as the junior has racked up seven from the Crossroads League and also earned a National Player of the Week nod from the NAIA.
Bradbury and the No. 16 Trojans (21-9, 14-4 CL) will host Mount Vernon Nazarene (8-13, 2-8 CL) inside Odle Arena on Tuesday night at 7:00 pm in the Crossroads League Tournament Quarterfinals. Taylor claimed the No. 3 seed in the league tournament and MVNU grabbed the No. 6 seed. TU lost to the Cougars, 78-70, at Mount Vernon on December 2, before defeating Mount Vernon, 90-53, at Paul Patterson Court in Upland on February 3.
