SEATTLE (Jan. 13) -- Carli Smith, a freshman forward who posted two double-doubles for unbeaten Seattle Pacific University last week, has been selected as women's basketball co-player of the week in the Great Northwest Athletic Conference.

Smith (Fr., 5-11, Spokane, Wa./Valley Christian) came off the bench for 17 points and 19 rebounds in a 95-75 victory over Northwest Nazarene and added 11 and 10, respectively, in Saturday's 90-49 win over Saint Martin's. The 19 boards ties for the No. 4 all-time single game total by an SPU player and No. 2 in GNAC records. The Falcons are now 13-0 (4-0 in the GNAC) and ranked No. 2 among NCAA Division II teams.

Seattle Pacific, already off to its best start, can set a new school record for consecutive wins Saturday at Central Washington.
