STANDISH, Maine – The Maine Women's Basketball Coaches Association (MWBCA) weekly awards have been released and Saint Joseph's College freshman guard Hannah Marks (Waldoboro, Maine) has claimed Rookie of the Week honors.

Marks registered the finest performance of her young career with 21 points and three rebounds in a victory over University of Saint Joseph on Saturday. The freshman guard went 6-8 from the floor, including a perfect 5-5 three-point shooting performance, and made all four of her free throw attempts in the conference victory. The weekly honor is the first of her collegiate career.

She currently leads the team in three-point success and is ranked third on the squad in three-pointers made and fifth in scoring average.
