Bigham picks up fifth SAA Athlete of the Week honors

SEWANEE, Tenn. – Fletcher Bigham earned his fifth Athlete of the Week honor of the season, as announced by the conference office on Monday afternoon.

Bigham averaged 21 points and 13 rebounds over the weekend, recording his 13th and 14th double-doubles of the season. The junior turned in a monster performance on Friday against Oglethorpe, finishing just two assists shy of a triple-double with 17 points, 15 rebounds, eight assists, four blocks, and a steal—while committing zero turnovers. He shot 6-of-11 (54.5%) from the floor in the victory.

On Sunday, Bigham poured in 25 points, his 11th game this season with at least 20 points, while adding 11 rebounds, two blocks, and a steal. He was efficient from the field, going 10-of-16 (62.5%) overall and 4-of-6 (66.7%) from beyond the arc, including three three-pointers in the final two-and-a-half minutes against Berry.

For the season, Bigham is averaging 19.6 points and 11.4 rebounds per game. He currently ranks second in the nation in defensive rebounds per game (10.0), third in total double-doubles, sixth in blocks (64), and 10th in rebounds per game.

Sewanee closes out the regular season on the road with three SAA matchups, beginning with contests at Rhodes and Millsaps this weekend.
