RICHMOND, Va. – Virginia Commonwealth University senior Eric Maynor (Raeford, N.C.), who posted back-to-back 30-point efforts, was named the Colonial Athletic Association’s Player of the Week Monday.
It’s the fourth time this season and the second consecutive week that Maynor has picked up the honor.
A 6-3 guard, Maynor averaged 31.5 points, 5.5 rebounds and 3.5 assists in two games. Maynor scored 30 points during the Rams’ 68-63 loss to first-place Northeastern Jan. 27. He followed with a 33-point, nine-rebound effort in VCU’s win over Hofstra Jan. 31.

VCU (16-6, 9-2 CAA) will return to action on Wednesday, Feb. 4 when it takes on UNC Wilmington at 7 p.m. at Trask Coliseum in Wilmington, N.C.
