Brent Moss of the 13th ranked Barton Community College men's basketball team has been named the KJCCC's Week 9 Player of the Week.
Moss posted a pair of double-double performances last week averaging 18 points behind 52.2-percent shooting and grabbed 11.5 rebounds per contest leading the Cougars' victories.
The sophomore opened the week putting together a stat stuffing night of 17 points and 13 rebounds while adding career highs of 5 assists and 3 steals in Wednesday's victory over Fort Hays Tech Northwest.
This past Saturday Moss was back at it scoring a team high 19 points and 10 rebounds to lead all five Barton's starters in double-digit scoring in the victory at Colby.
The award is Moss' second of the season, the first coming in week three, and follows James Parlow, Jr.'s honor giving Barton the league recognition for the second consecutive awarding.
Most recently Moss put up monster numbers in Wednesday loss to Independence on program top ten single game performances of 40 points with 20 rebounds in posting his 7th double-double of the season. Additionally, Moss dished out 3 assists marking the third straight game of 3+ dimes and tied a career high defensive effort of 3 blocked shots.
Now 7-4 in KJCCC play and 13-4 overall, Moss and the Cougars look to regroup on Saturday hosting No. 12 Coffeyville Community College in a 4:00 p.m. tip-off to conclude the first half of the rugged 26-game Jayhawk Conference schedule.
