Bowling Green men’s basketball junior guard Marcus Hill was named Mid-American Conference (MAC) Co-Player of the Week on Monday afternoon. 

The nod marks the third time Hill, who shared the honor with Ohio’s Jaylin Hunter, has received the recognition. Hill was previously named MAC Player of the Week on Nov. 27 and MAC Co-Player of the Week on Jan. 22. 

The Rockford, Illinois, native finished with 27 points, six rebounds and four assists in BG’s 87-73 win against Buffalo on Tuesday before tallying 22 points and six rebounds in Bowling Green’s 86-60 loss against Louisiana on Sunday. 

Across the two games this past week, Hill averaged 24.5 points, six rebounds and three assists per contest, shooting 63.6% (21-33) from the field.

After leading the National Junior College Athletic Association in points scored last season, Hill leads the MAC with 21.5 points per game, 517 points scored and 188 field goals made in his first season at the Division I level. He ranks sixth in the nation in field goals made and eighth in points per game.
