Logic named Big Ten Player of the Week

Iowa women’s basketball guard Sam Logic has been named the Big Ten Player of the Week.

“Sam is very deserving of this honor,” head coach Lisa Bluder said in a press release. “She is the ultimate competitor and displayed that in our two victories in the Hawkeye Challenge.”

Logic was named the tournament MVP of the Hawkeye Challenge this past weekend. The native of Racine, Wis., has averaged 22 points, 9.5 assists, 6 rebounds, and 3 steals per game this season.

The junior guard recorded her 13th career double-double on Nov. 10, posting 16 points and 14 assists in the Hawks’ 97-93 defeat of then-No. 14 Dayton. Logic also hit the game tying three-pointer with nine seconds remaining to send the game into overtime.

The award is Logic’s third career Player of the Week honor. The last Hawkeye to earn the weekly honor was Jaime Printy on Jan. 29.
