Kansas Wesleyan’s Trey Sims has been named as the KCAC Men’s Basketball Player of the Week, as announced by the KCAC Sports Information Office on Monday morning, January 14.

Sims, a 6-1 junior guard from Tulsa, Okla., averaged 16.5 points and 7.5 rebounds in two games for the Coyotes last week in two wins that boosted Wesleyan’s record to 6-8 overall and 4-1 in the KCAC.

In last Thursday’s 79-57 win over Bethel College in KWU’s KCAC home opener, Sims scored ten points and pulled down nine rebounds. He was 4-of-7 from the field and 2-of-3 at the line, while dishing out two assists in the win.

On Saturday in a 54-51 win over Saint Mary in Leavenworth, Sims had a game high 23 points on 8-of-14 shooting and pulled down six rebounds and had three steals.

The two wins helped Wesleyan jump into a three-way tie for first place in the KCAC with Sterling and Ottawa.

The Coyotes entertain the Sterling Warriors on Wednesday evening at 8 p.m. inside Muir Gym, before hosting Friends on Saturday at 7 p.m., also inside Muir Gym.
