She shot 60 percent from the floor and 50 percent from the arc for the week as the Hatters improved to 10-1 in their last 11 games.

Hargrove earned her third Freshman of the Week honor and her fourth weekly honor of the season overall after averaging 9.0 points and 6.5 rebounds in the two Stetson wins. She scored 12 points and grabbed five rebounds in the road win at Kennesaw State, then netted six points with eight rebounds and three steals in the home win over UNF.
