Jasmine Webb Earns LSC North Division Award

RICHARDSON, Texas – Northeastern State’s Jasmine Webb, junior post from Owasso, has been selected the North Division Defensive Player of the Week.

Webb led Northeastern State’s defensive presence in two LSC North wins last week. She was charged
With guarding the leading scorer for Southeastern State and did so by holding her to two points, all of those coming in the final half, after the RiverHawks had built an insurmountable lead.

Southeastern was limited to 28.0 percent shooting on the night (14 of 50), 2 of 12 from the arc, and made 19 turnovers in the 77-43 RiverHawks win.

Webb and the RiverHawks also flexed its defensive muscle at EastCentral, especially in the final 20 minutes, as the Tigers converted just 7 of 26 shots (26.9 percent) in the second half as NSU prevailed 90-69.

The RiverHawks have won five consecutive games and are 15-4 for the year and 4-0 in LSC North Division play.
