Senior Oneil Holder Named Landmark Conference Men's Basketball Athlete of the Week.

TOWSON, Md. --- Moravian College senior forward Oneil Holder has been named the Landmark Conference Men's Basketball Athlete of the Week for his performance last week.

Holder posted his third double-double of the season as he recorded 26 points and 11 rebounds in the Greyhounds' 79-75 win at rival Muhlenberg College last Saturday. He was 8-for-17 from the floor including 2-for-4 beyond the three-point line to go with an 8-for-11 performance at the foul line. Holder also had four assists, a steal and a blocked shot in 29 minutes of action. Holder now has 15 career double-doubles and has moved into 12th in school history with 1,273 points and 11th with 591 rebounds.

"Oneil has had a great start to his senior year, and he has been consistent for us every night out," stated fourth-year Head Coach Justin Potts. "O has been playing at high level on both ends of the floor and been instrumental in our good start to the season. As we say in our program, individual awards are a result of team success."

Moravian, which is 7-2 overall after seven consecutive victories, is slated to play its final game of the first semester on Wednesday, December 19 when the squad travels to New York City to play Yeshiva (N.Y.) University in a non-conference contest tipping off at 8:00 p.m.
