ANNAPOLIS, Md. - Navy men's basketball junior guard Shawn Anderson has been named the NAAA Athlete of the Week, for the week ending January 22.

Anderson earns his second NAAA Athlete of the Week award of the 2016-17 season.

Anderson averaged a team-high 20.5 points in Navy's two wins last week. Navy defeated Lehigh and Army West Point last week and the Mids have won five straight games.

Anderson poured in a career-high 30 points in Navy's 96-80 overtime win over rival Army West Point on Saturday and also had six rebounds, five assists and one steal. Anderson was 8-of-19 from the floor and 13-of-17 from the free throw line. He became the first player in the Ed DeChellis era (sixth season) to score 30 points in a game.

Anderson also scored 11 points with five rebounds and four assists in a 75-72 win over Lehigh last Wednesday. Anderson scored the go-ahead layup after Navy rallied from an 11-point second half deficit against Lehigh.

Navy (10-10, 5-3 PL) will next play at American on Wednesday at 7:30 PM.
