INDIANAPOLIS - The Horizon League names Jenny Lindner Player of the Week, Lizzie Odegard Freshman of the Week with strong play from both players as the Panthers tallied a 3-0 record for the week.
Jenny Lindner was a force for Milwaukee as she recorded a double-double against Wisconsin with 28 points, 11 boards and four assists on the night. Her performance included a near 50 percent shooting (9-19) from the field as well as a perfect 9-9 clip from the charity stripe in Milwaukee's blowout victory over the Badgers.
The junior also played well over the weekend at the TD Bank Classic for Milwaukee leading the team in total points (29) for the squad's two wins. This is the fourth time that Lindner has been recognized as Player of the Week.
Lizzie Odegard was also a big factor in the Panthers going undefeated on the week. The forward shot an efficient 6-8 from the field for 14 points against Vermont and registered seven rebounds. Odegard also drained both triples that she attempted.
This is the second Freshman of the Week honor that Odegard has received on the year.
