St. Louis, Mo. - This week's American Midwest Conference Women's Basketball Player of the Week honor goes to Ashley Wilson from Hannibal-LaGrange University.

With conference play in full swing, Wilson helped the Trojans to a 1-1 record on the week, dropping a buzzer beater to Harris-Stowe State University and posting a commanding victory over Stephens College. The junior from Westmont, Ill. connected on 27 points and pulled down 13 rebounds against Harris-Stowe, tying her career highs in points and rebounds with the Trojans. Wilson was near perfect from the field, making 12 of her 13 attempts and three-of-four from the charity stripe. 

In Hannibal's win over Stephens, the 6-0 forward chipped in 10 points and three rebounds in just 13 minutes of action as the Trojans defeated the Stars by 18 points. For the week, Ashley shot 94 percent from the field, averaging 18.5 points per game. She also dished out two assists, one block and 1.5 steals per game.

Through Wilson's 18 games this season she has shot 59 percent from the field, good enough to rank her eighth in the NAIA in field goal percentage. 

The Trojans are 11-8 on the season and 2-2 in AMC play. They return to the court on Tuesday, January 24^th when they host former AMC member McKendree (Ill.) University at 7 p.m.
