Williams And Aces Set To Play Monday Evening

 For the fourth time this season and the second week in a row.  University of Evansville sophomore DeAndre Williams has been recognized as the Missouri Valley Conference Newcomer of the Week.

In Evansville’s only game of the week, Williams notched his third double-double in the last four games while leading the Purple Aces to a 72-62 road victory at Green Bay.  A week after going 17-of-18 against Miami Ohio, Williams posted a 7-of-8 contest from the field and hit 7 out of 8 free throws in the win over the Phoenix.

He finished with 22 points, 12 rebounds, 3 assists along with a block and steal.  Williams drew seven fouls and went 1-for-2 from outside.  His efforts helped Evansville improve to a perfect 3-0 in road games in 2019.
