MILWAUKEE – Stevie Elam of the Milwaukee men's basketball team has been named the Horizon League Under Armour Freshman of the Week, the league office announced this afternoon.
Elam put together a great outing against Akron Saturday. After missing Tuesday's game due to injury, the newcomer set season highs in both points and rebounds against the Zips, finishing with 17 points and seven rebounds, making 4-of-9 three-pointers.
He's just the fourth MKE freshman to win the league honor all-time (it started for the 2013-14 season) and the first since Patrick Baldwin Jr. in December of 2021.
