MACON – Athletics department officials from Mercer University announced Monday that women's basketball's Summah Evans and men's lacrosse's Taylor Dooley have been named Mercer Student-Athletes of the Week for the week ending on February 4, 2024.
Dooley started two games in the attacker position for the Bears over the weekend and registered a team-best seven points on one goal and six assists. The senior from Ontario, Canada, turned in a shot on goal and one assist in Mercer's season-opening setback at High Point on Saturday, but followed it up with a brilliant outing in the home rout of Hampton on Sunday. Dooley tacked up five assists in that outing, while also notching a goal in the second period.
A product of Cairns, Australia, Evans registered a career night in Mercer's rout of Samford on Saturday afternoon, tacking up a career-best 35 points on an impressive 5-for-8 performance from beyond the arch, while also turning in a team-best six rebounds, two blocks and a pair of assists. Evans scored 21 points on 8-for-10 shooting in the first half alone of that contest, and then added 14 more points in 15 minutes of action in the second half.
