Iowa has to feel good about their star player as she earns the Player of the Week honor for a second time this season for Iowa. Gustafson has averaged 26.0 points, 10.0 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game with a .742 field goal percentage. She has also scored double-double for Iowa’s two games last week.
In the Big Ten/ACC challenge, she scored a career-high 34 points, nine rebounds, three assists, and two blocks. They lost to Florida State, but Gustafson’s elite level of play kept them in the game for a long time. This will be her third career player of the week honor.

She also achieved a .647 field goal percentage and achieved a double double as well. In their Big Ten/ACC challenge against Clemson, she scored 11 points, eight rebounds, and a career-high six blocks. This will be her second career Freshman of the week honors.
