TOWSON, Md. --- Moravian University graduate student forward Tessa Zamolyi has been honored as the Landmark Conference Women's Basketball Athlete of the Week for her performance last week.

Zamolyi helped Moravian to a 2-0 record last week in Landmark Conference action by averaging a double-double of 21.0 points and 10.5 rebounds per game. She also shot 15-for-27 from the field, 1-for-3 beyond the three-point line and 11-for-14 at the foul line to go along with 2 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocked shots in 66 minutes of action. Zamolyi had 15 points and 10 rebounds to go with a pair of steals in 37 minutes of action in the Hounds' 55-52 win over Drew University. She then had a Moravian career-high 27 points to go with 11 rebounds in her 15th double-double of the winter as the Greyhounds upset No. 15 (WBCA)/No. 24 (d3hoops.com) Elizabethtown College, 75-70. The honor was the second of the season for Zamolyi from the Landmark Conference.

"Tessa put together two solid games this week and is most deserving of the Player of the Week recognition," state Head Women's Basketball Coach Mary Beth Spirk. "She has established herself on both ends of the floor as a force to be reckoned with as she can score, rebound and defend. Congratulations to Tessa."

The Hounds, who are 12-9 overall and 5-5 in Landmark Conference action, are scheduled to return to the court on Wednesday, February 8 in a Landmark Conference contest at Goucher College tipping off at 7:00 p.m.
