Freshman Nick Trull named Conference Player of the Week

The following was taken from Anderson University Sports Information Director Cobb Oxford:

Anderson University's Nick Trull (3-4 overall, 1-1 Conference Carolinas) has been selected as the NCAA Division II Conference Carolinas men's basketball Player of the Week during week number four in the 2008-09 season.

In Anderson's lone game of the week, Trull, a freshman from Charlotte, N.C., came off the bench to score a career-high 30 points in 37 minutes to help lead the Trojans to a dramatic double overtime victory over Carson-Newman.

Trull made a 3-point basket late in the first overtime to tie the game at 98 and finished the game 6-for-10 from behind the arc. He also had eight rebounds and four of Anderson's 11 steals.

The game set Anderson school records for most points in a single game and most points by both teams in a single game at the Abney Center.
