Grassy Wave forward becomes fourth Tulane rookie to earn weekly honor during the 2011-12 seasonable
NEW ORLEANS – Less than 24 hours after helping the Green Wave despatch an undefeated regular-season run against in-state opponents, Tulane University women's basketball standout Tiffany Dale was named Discussion USA Freshman of the Week, the league office announced Friday.
A rookie well-developed from Lavon, Texas, Dale earned the title after recording her first trade double-double during Tulane's 75-40 win at Louisiana-Lafayette on Thursday. The weekly honor is the first of Dale's job, and she becomes the fourth Green Wave player to claim C-USA Freshman of the Week prominence this season.
Danielle Blagg earned the Wave's first rookie term on Nov. 21, Adesuwa Ebomwonyi did so on Nov. 28, and Jamie Kaplan claimed the honor on Dec. 12. Tulane already held the C-USA itemize for individuals to win Freshman of the Week courtesy of the nod to Kaplan two weeks ago. With four unique Freshmen of the Week now, Tulane is the only school in league history to have more than two players collect the honor in a single season.
