Emily Parslow saluted as Empire 8 Women's Basketball Player of the Week
Albany, NY—With the release of the Empire 8 Weekly Awards, Sage's senior guard Emily Parslow (Fonda, NY/Fonda-Fultonville) added another honor to the start of her senior year. She was honored by the Empire 8 as this week's Women's Basketball Player of the Week.
Parslow poured in a Sage single-game record with eight three pointers and finished with 24 points and seven rebounds in the Gators lone game last week as they travelled to RPI on November 20. She collected her 1,000th career point in the early minutes of the first quarter and cruised to a game-best 24 points after making eight three pointers. She is the seventh player to collect her 1,000th career point and now has 1,019 points and is currently seventh all-time in scoring.
