It is the second time in her career that Anderson has earned the national award and she becomes the first player in the MIAC to be named to the D3hoops.com National Team this year.
Anderson, who earned the previous D3hoops.com National Team of the Week honor last year for her performance in Las Vegas at the D3hoops.com Classic, helped Concordia win three games last week – including a 73-65 win over No.6-ranked Gustavus.
Anderson averaged 18.7 points in Concordia's three wins last week. She also averaged 7.7 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 2.3 steals in helping the Cobbers clinch a Top 2 MIAC finish and a home game for the conference semifinals.
Anderson's biggest contribution to the Cobbers came in the team's 73-65 win over No.6-ranked Gustavus. She went 7-for-14 from the floor and 7-for-9 from the free throw line in posting a team-high 21 points. The CC win ended the Gusties' 32-game win streak against conference opponents.
Anderson started the week by putting up a double-double at St. Benedict. She finished the week by scoring 19 points on a 8-for-12 shooting performance in Concordia's 90-69 win at Augsburg.
