Junior Meghan Fiore of the Utica College women’s basketball team was named the College’s Female Athlete of the Week, Monday.
Fiore, a native of Epping, NH, became just the 10th player in program history to record 1,000 career points on Friday as UC fell to Hartwick 68-46. She averaged 15.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, 1.7 blocks, and shot 45.5 percent from the floor as UC went 0-3 this past week. Fiore is the third player in three years to join the 1,000 point club, following in the footsteps of 2011 graduates Jessica Berry and Devon Croll.
On the season, Fiore leads the team in points (306), points per game (17), and rebounds per game, (9.1). She also has a .494 field goal percentage, and averages 1.1 steals per game.
The Pioneers are currently 7-13 on the season and 2-7 in the Empire 8. They travel to Rochester, NY this weekend for a 2-game set against St. John Fisher on Friday, and Nazareth on Saturday. Game times are 6 p.m. and 2 p.m. respectively.
