Ferris State's Mia Riley Earns GLIAC Offensive Player Of Week Honor

Big Rapids, Mich. - Senior guard Mia Riley (Fowler) of the nationally 19th-ranked Ferris State University women's basketball squad has been tabbed as the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) Offensive Player of the Week.

Riley led the Bulldogs to a big regional win over Hillsdale in FSU's lone action last week, tallying a team-high 22 points and seven rebounds in the 79-68 victory on Wednesday (Nov. 26) over the Chargers inside Jim Wink Arena.

The senior standout added three steals and two assists with a blocked shot in 24 minutes of work as Ferris State topped a Hillsdale team that held a 3-1 mark entering the game. She went eight-of-15 from the floor and hit two three's along with four-of-six free throws as Ferris State improved to 6-1 on the year.

This week, the Bulldogs will open up conference action on the road with a pair of league games. FSU will first visit Purdue Northwest on Thursday (Dec. 4) evening for a 6 p.m. (ET) tilt in Hammond, Ind. The Bulldogs will then face Wayne State on Saturday (Dec. 6) in Detroit starting at 1 p.m. (ET).
