Mercer's Lewis Picks Up POTW Nod

Date Posted: 2/12/2007

Macon, Ga. – Making a late season surge, Mercer had a 2-0 week courtesy of TaShera Lewis. She was named Atlantic Sun Player of the Week today by the conference office. Against Belmont and Lipscomb, Lewis averaged 16 points and 5.5 rebounds.

Handing the top team in the league its first A-Sun loss of the season, Mercer was able to capitalize on its home court advantage, and the absence of Belmont starters Shaunda Strayhorn and Alysha Clark. Lewis poured in 17 points, four rebounds and three assists in the Bears' 69-65 victory.

Against Stetson, the sophomore forward scored 15 points and pulled down five boards as Mercer cruised to a 58-49 win over Lipscomb. The Bears are now 4-19 overall and 3-9 in conference play.

This marks the first Player of the Week award for Lewis. A native of Eastman, Ga., Lewis is majoring in Biology.
