DENVER – Seattle U sophomore guard Terrell Brown has been named Western Athletic Conference Men’s Basketball Player of the Week for the week of Feb. 18-24. This is his first-ever WAC Player of the Week honor.

Brown, who has scored 20 or more points in five of the Redhawks’ last six games, poured in a game-high 21 points to go along with eight rebounds, three assists and two steals in a 69-64 win over Kansas City last Thursday. Two days later, he shot 9-of-13 (69.2 percent) from the field on his way to 20 points to go with four rebounds, four assists and two steals, in a 77-57 win over Chicago State.
