UJ’s Dobson named GPAC Player of the Week

 

Isaiah Dobson (SR/Stillwater, MN) of the University of Jamestown men’s basketball team has been named Great Plains Athletic Conference Player of the Week, the conference office announced Tuesday.

Dobson averaged 35 points last week as the Jimmies split a pair of games. Against Dickinson State, he set a career high with 42 points in a 101-89 victory. Dobson’s 42 points were second-most in school history, and his 16-for-16 performance at the free throw line tied a school mark. Dobson had 28 points and five rebounds in the Jimmies’ 76-68 loss to No. 1 Morningside (Iowa).

For the week, Dobson shot 63.3% (19-of-30) overall and 61.1 % (11-for-18) from three-point range, and was 21-for-21 from the foul line.

The Jimmies are back in action with a 7 p.m. home game against Dakota State (N.D.) on December 28.
