Wisconsin guard wins Freshman of the Week
Wisconsin women’s basketball guard D’Yanis Jimenez was selected as the Big Ten Freshman of the Week on Monday.
The Badgers defeated St. Thomas on Wednesday night 78-55 and Jimenez had a career-high 20 points (7-13 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-5 FT) while also recording three steals, a rebound, an assist and a block over 29 minutes.
On the season, the Florida-native is averaging 10.7 points per game in her first year with Marisa Moseley’s squad in Madison and the team is out to a 6-4 start to the 2023 campaign.
Wisconsin’s next contest will come Thursday night at the Kohl Center, hosting Eastern Illinois at 6:30. Jimenez will look to build off of her career night when her squad takes on the Panthers.
You've got that right! @DYanisJimenez1 is this week's B1G Freshman of the Week!
