At this point, can we rename the award "Bowling Green player of the week"?

This is the 4th LP has been named MAC player of the week. I think a MAC player of the year award isn't far off...

I haven't checked the stats, but has anybody else had the MAC POW that many times? I would have to think she would get it right now and there's still a fair amount of season left.

According to the write up on the official athletics site, that's actually her fifth. 4? 5? Who's counting? It's awesome either way:P

She has five, no other SCHOOL has won more than four this year. Kowalska from Kent has won three, but 3 < 5.

The only other player I can think of that's in the conversation is Anna Kowalska, but with KSU below .500 in conference play, that has to hurt her chances. Kara Murphy's a great scorer, but she doesn't contribute much elsewhere and Akron is awful.
I'd have to think it's Prochaska's to lose at this point.
