Kami Walk (SOU) named CCC Player of the week
Southern Oregon’s Kami Walk was voted the Rize Laboratory Cascade Conference Women’s Basketball Player of the Week on Monday after leading the No. 25-ranked Raiders to three consecutive home victories.
Walk, a 5-foot-11 junior forward who last year received NAIA All-America honorable mention, averaged 14 points and 9.7 rebounds as SOU defeated Oregon Tech (62-55), Warner Pacific (59-53) and Multnomah (66-55).
She recorded back-to-back double-doubles for the first time this season over the weekend, going for 13 points and 11 rebounds against the Knights and 16 and 12 against the Lions. Those outings came on the heels of her best performance of the season against College of Idaho on Jan. 21, when she went for 22 and 12 to lift the Raiders over the Yotes in overtime.
In CCC play, Walk ranks 10th in points per game (12.7), fourth in rebounds (7.9) and 13th in blocked shots (0.8).
