Wisconsin women’s basketball guard D’Yanis Jimenez was selected as the Big Ten Freshman of the Week on Monday.
The Badgers defeated St. Thomas on Wednesday night 78-55 and Jimenez had a career-high 20 points (7-13 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-5 FT) while also recording three steals, a rebound, an assist and a block over 29 minutes.
On the season, the Florida-native is averaging 10.7 points per game in her first year with Marisa Moseley’s squad in Madison and the team is out to a 6-4 start to the 2023 campaign.
Wisconsin’s next contest will come Thursday night at the Kohl Center, hosting Eastern Illinois at 6:30. Jimenez will look to build off of her career night when her squad takes on the Panthers.
You've got that right! @DYanisJimenez1 is this week's B1G Freshman of the Week!
