Josh Cunningham has a decent chance to be this week's Newcomer of the Week...

The only other newcomer that I see had as good of a week is Indiana State's Tre Bennett had a couple double digit scoring games (15 pts in both games) - and of course, Indiana State went 2-0...

Working in Josh's favor is the rarity of any freshman having games of 8 pts/10 rebs & 7 pts/12 rebs - but BU did not win both games so that could work against him.

I think the Player of the Week will be Egidijus Mockevicius, who had games of 12 pts/13 rebs & 13 pts/14 rebs - but Ron Baker also had two good games & of course Wichita is gonna get a lot of these awards this year...
