WICHITA, Kan. - An outstanding effort on the defensive end of the floor for Kansas Wesleyan's Angel Lee has earned her the KCAC Women's Basketball Defensive Player of the Week honor as announced on Monday by the conference office. Student-athletes were selected for their performances by a vote of conference sports information directors for all KCAC Player of the Week honors and are presented at the conference level by Equity Bank.
Lee was huge on the defensive end of the floor for the Coyotes in KWU's 62-47 win over Tabor.
