Taylor Roberts Named OVC Freshman of the Week


NASHVILLE, Tennessee -- Tennessee State University women’s basketball forward
Taylor Roberts was named the adidas OVC Freshman of the Week for the fourth time on Tuesday.

Roberts continued her impressive rookie season with a career-high 27 points in TSU’s last game versus Marshall. She helped the Lady Tigers erase a 31-point deficit and hold the opponent to only 22 second half points.

The Oklahoma City, Okla. native made 10-of-11 free-throws and tallied five rebounds in the game. She also recorded two steals and one assist.

This is Roberts’ fourth OVC Freshman of the Week award.

TSU returns to action on Dec. 28 when the Lady Tigers open OVC play at UT Martin. Game time is set for 3 p.m. in Elam Center.
