In this week’s edition, we recognize one varsity athlete who’s finally getting back in shape and back to dominating on the basketball court.

After missing half of the season due to academic ineligibility, Markus Kennedy has come back to the court and has been performing ever since.

Most notably, Wednesday night Kennedy scored a career-high 22 points to lead the Mustangs over the USF Bulls in Tampa, Florida. Kennedy also recorded seven rebounds, two assists and one steal.

Kennedy is the player of the week because he’s scored 10 or more points in the last five games and 20 or more in three of the last seven games.

Despite Head Coach Larry Brown continuing to keep Kennedy on the bench to start the game, he’s still putting up important numbers for the Mustangs who improved to 17-4 overall and 8-1 in the AAC.

Catch Kennedy and the Mustangs back in action in Moody against UCF on Saturday, Jan. 31, at 7 p.m.
