ANGOLA, IND. -- Trine University's Myles Copeland (Perrysburg, Ohio/Toledo St. John's) has been named this week's Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association Men's Basketball "Player of the Week."
Copeland averaged 39.0 points and 10.0 rebounds to help lead Trine to a pair of wins this past week. He scored a career-high 41 points, and grabbed 11 rebounds, in the Thunder's win against Calvin.
He then followed that game with a 37-point, nine-rebound effort later in the week as Trine beat Albion this past Saturday, Feb. 10.
For the season, Copeland is averaging 19.2 points per game to lead the team and is second on the team in rebounding average at 6.3 boards per game. He is shooting an even 50.0 percent from the field (162-of-324), including 79.7 percent (118-of-148) at the free-throw line, to go along with 14 blocked shots.
