Caley Shaffstall named D-II Player of the Week
Cottey College athletic director and head basketball coach Dave Ketterman announced Thursday that one of his players has received national recognition the Comets haven't seen in seven years.
Caley Shaffstall became the first player since Lacy (Leonard) Warren played for Ketterman in the 2007 season to earn NJCAA Division-II Player of the Week honors, for the week of Feb. 10-16. Shaffstall earned the nod by scoring a combined total of 46 points with 24 rebounds, 12 assists and five steals in two games, against Penn Valley and Wentworth.
Shaffstall will hope to maintain that high level of play as she and her Comets teammates continue the regular season Saturday, hosting St. Louis Community College. Tipoff in that contest is scheduled for 1 p.m., in the gym at Cottey's Hinkhouse Center.
