Callaway, Chamblee singled out for UCI
UC Irvine senior forward Christina Callaway was named Big West
Conference Player of the Week in women’s basketball after averaging
18.5 points and 10.0 rebounds per game last week, while UCI senior
women’s water polo goalkeeper Sunceray Chamblee has been named
Mountain Pacific Sports Federation Player of the Week for her
performances against San Diego State and Hawaii.
Callaway led UCI to a win over UC Riverside, recording her seventh
double-double with 18 points and 14 rebounds. In the two games last
week versus Cal State Fullerton and UC Riverside, she shot a combined
16 of 29 (.552) from the floor, including .588 (10-17) in the second
halves when she scored 23 of her 37 points. It is her third career
Player of the Week honor.
Chamblee had nine saves in the loss to the fifth-ranked Aztecs
last Thursday and six saves in UCI’s win over No. 8 Hawaii Saturday.
Chamblee is the third Anteater to ever win the award and the first
since the 2002 season.
