Cal State San Bernardino guard Leslie Pickron has been named Wilson California Collegiate Athletic Association Women’s Basketball Player of the Week for the week of Feb. 11-17.
Pickron, a 5-foot-8 senior from Riverside, Calif., averaged 17.0 points, one rebound and two assists in victories over Chico State and Cal State Stanislaus that propelled the Coyotes into a first-place tie with Chico State. Both the Coyotes and Wildcats are battling for the CCAA’s regular-season title and the top-seed in the conference tournament.
In a match-up of the conference’s top two teams, Pickron came off the bench to score a team-high 14 points, dish out two assists and collect three steals while playing 23 minutes. She came up big for the Coyotes as she connected on four of nine shots from behind the three-point line in helping Cal State San Bernardino to a 61-51 victory.
One night later against Cal State Stanislaus, Pickron scored 20 points and had two assists in 19 minutes during a 74-60 win. She was six of eight from three-point range and concluded the night seven of nine from the field.
Cal State San Bernardino concludes its home schedule this week when it hosts Cal Poly Pomona and UC San Diego.
The player of the week on the men's side is senior Devin Peal of Humboldt State.
