LATHAM, N.Y. - Thanks to her efforts in a pair of games over the weekend, Penn State Harrisburg women's basketball player Ali Lister has been named the United East Volt Division Defensive Player of the Week.
Lister did the dirty work for the Lions (1-4) during a pair of games at the Pablo Coto Tip-Off Tournament hosted by Marymount (Va.) over the weekend. In a narrow setback against Case Western Reserve on Friday night, the junior swiped a game-high four steals, grabbed three defensive rebounds, and added a block before racking up a game-high six steals to go along with four defensive boards and another block in the team's first victory of the season over Worcester State on Saturday night. Across the pair of games, the forward averaged five steals, 3.5 defensive rebounds, and one block per contest.
Penn State Harrisburg will continue non-conference play at Gwynedd Mercy on Tuesday night, Nov. 21.
