Megan Lewis Named Northeast-10 Conference Rookie of the Week

By Sam Neter on November 17, 2015

After helping the Falcons to a pair of season-opening wins in Philadelphia over the weekend, Bentley University freshman guard and Great Britain Under-20 Megan Lewis has been named the Northeast-10 Conference Women’s Basketball Rookie of the Week.

Lewis debuted by averaging 10.5 points, eight rebounds and four assists while shooting 57 percent overall, a combination that only one other player in the 15-team conference could match or better during the opening weekend. During the 48 minutes she was on the court, Bentley outscored its opponents by a team-best 37 points.

Following a quiet debut in a 79-54 win over Holy Family University, the six-footer filled the stat sheet with 17 points, 11 rebounds, six assists, a steal and four three-pointers as the Falcons took care of Philadelphia University, 69-60, Sunday afternoon.

Lewis headed to Bentley after a year at New Hampton Prep. In England she represented Sevenoaks Suns and was a part of the England Under-18 and Great Britain Under-20 programmes.

Do you like our work?

We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.

We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.

We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.

If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.

We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
