Dennis repeats as PSAC East Player of the Week

KUTZTOWN, PA.  (January 18, 2010) – Kutztown University senior guard and Division II national Player of the Year candidate Stephen Dennis (West Chester/Henderson) was named the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Eastern Division Player of the Week for the second straight week and third time this season.

Dennis enjoyed a tremendous week in which he averaged 38.5 points while making two-thirds of his shots from the field (26-for-39) and over 80 percent of his free throws (15-for-21) to help the Golden Bears, ranked third in the NABC/Division II Top 25 poll, improve their overall record to 14-0 and remain the only undefeated team in the PSAC. Dennis also averaged 2.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 steal per game.

Against previously unbeaten and 24th-ranked East Stroudsburg on Wednesday, Dennis went for a career-high 42 points (21 in each half) on 13-of-20 shooting in the 87-84 win. He also tied the school record by making 16 free throws in the game. He poured in 35 points on 13-of-19 shooting in an 83-63 win over Millersville on Saturday and also added five rebounds.

With 1,960 career points, Dennis is now just 57 points away from tying the Kutztown record. He has scored 30 or more points five times this year. This marks the fourth straight week that a Kutztown player has claimed the PSAC East Player of the Week award and the fifth time in the last six weeks.

Overall, Dennis leads the PSAC in scoring (26.5 points per game) and is second in assists (5.4).

Kutztown returns to action Wednesday night when it visits Mansfield (11-4) in a showdown for first place in the PSAC at Decker Gym beginning at 7:30 p.m. Fans can listen to the game live on the Golden Bear Network at www.kubears.com.
