GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - The Golden Eagles saw a pair of athletes honored in this week's WHAC Player of the Week awards as bowler Lauren Lovett and men's basketball player Carter Nyp each earned the honor. Both awards for the West Michigan standouts are the first of the 2022-23 season. 

Lauren Lovett - WHAC Bowler of the Week
Junior Lauren Lovett finished third and fourth individually to help her team to a third and fourth place finish at a pair of bowling events in Adrian over the weekend at Lenawee Recreation Center. At the SHU Halo Classic on Friday, Lovett bowled a 744 in three games to finish fourth overall and help her team to third. In the Adrian Bowling Invite she finished fourth overall with a 1103 in six games bowled. Lovett medaled in both events to lead the Golden Eagles. 

Carter Nyp - WHAC Player of the Week
Fifth-year senior Carter Nyp led the red hot Golden Eagle offense this week with a 21 point performance at UM-Dearborn and a 27 point performance at UNOH. He went 20-29 from the field for a 68.9% mark to lead CU on the week and give them their first two WHAC wins of the year. He added nine rebounds and six assists in the game at Northwestern to near a triple-double. As a team, CU is averaging 95.4 points per game and shooting 55.3% from the field. Although it is just five games through the season, Cornerstone is currently on pace to break the program record in both categories as they averaged a program best 94.6 PPG in 2001-02 and 52.2% from the field in 1986-87.
