Barlow-Wilcox Earns ECAC Honors
Jan. 3 - (PITTSBURGH, Pa.) - Carnegie Mellon University senior forward Clayton Barlow-Wilcox (Brookline, Mass.) was named Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) Southern Men’s Basketball Player of the Week for his performance in leading Carnegie Mellon to a 51-46 road win over Division I Ivy League opponent, Princeton University Wednesday, December 28.
In the win, Barlow-Wilcox tallied game-highs with 15 points, nine rebounds and three steals, as the up-tempo Tartans outlasted the Princeton offense. The win was the first ever by a Division III team over Princeton in 28 contests in a stretch of 23 years. The last time Carnegie Mellon defeated a Division I opponent was March 1, 1969 in Skibo Gymnasium, as they defeated Pitt 68-64.
Carnegie Mellon continues their seven game road trip traveling to University Athletic Association (UAA) opponent Brandeis (Mass.) University on Friday, January 6 for an 8:00 p.m. tip and New York University on Sunday, January 8 for a 1:00 p.m. tip.
