He was 3-for-4 with four RBI in a 13-3 victory over the Lobos according to a release by the conference.
Kelsey Siemons of @CMUMavericks is the #RMACwbb Defensive Player of the Week following her nine blocks against Western Colorado. That tied a program record for most blocks in a single game. #EverythingElevated pic.twitter.com/7W95vw00TR

Former Catalina Foothills standout Kelsey Siemons was named RMAC Defensive Player of the Week on Monday after the Colorado Mesa senior nearly pulled off a triple double in the Mavericks win over Western Colorado last week. She finished with 11 points, 10 rebounds and nine blocked shots. The nine blocked shots is a career-high and tied a program record.
This list will be updated all year in an effort to recognize all former local prep stars who have gone on to achieve either academic and/or athletic awards at the next level. These are not high school awards but collegiate and professional recognitions. NOT CHAMPIONSHIPS. If you are aware of anything I have missed along the way, please let me know.
