February 18, 2019 | Women's Basketball
PRINCETON, N.J. – Bella Alarie was picked for her third straight Ivy League Player of the Week award, the conference announced today. She was also honored as Suburan Transit/GoPrincetonTigers.com Athlete of the Week.
Alarie just missed a double-double with 19 points and nine rebounds vs. Harvard as the Tigers earned a hard-earned 75-71 victory on Friday night. She added four blocks and two steals as well.
Â
The 2018 Ivy Player of the Year was incredible against Dartmouth on Saturday in a comeback victory, scoring 41 points, securing 13 rebounds, three steals and a steal.
Â
Alarie is one of two players in Ivy League history to score 40 points or more in a game twice (Diana Caramanico, Penn, 1999, 2001). She has three of the four best single-game point totals in program history.
Â
During a 2:32 stretch of the contest vs. the Big Green, Alarie registered 13 straight points for the Tigers as they rallied from 16 down to win.
Â
In 13 games this season, the Bethesda, Md., native has posted eight double-doubles, giving her 28 in 73 career contests (38.3 percent). She's averaging 24.7 points on 52.0 percent shooting, 10.9 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 3.2 blocks per game. The last person to average a double-double for an entire campaign was Ellen DeVoe '86 in 1984-85.
Â
It's 15th time that the two-time All-Ivy honoree has been picked for Player of the Week. Alarie was a six-time winner last season, while earning nine Ivy Rookie of the Week accolades and three more selections as a freshman. She's all-time program leader in POTW honors and is second in conference history, trailing just Allison Feaster '98 of Harvard (21).
Â
Princeton takes on Cornell (Feb. 22) and Columbia (Feb. 23) at Jadwin Gym this weekend. Both games are set for 5:30 p.m. tip-offs.
