COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – In just after her first two games in a Tennessee Tech uniform, junior guard/forward Anna Jones is already pulling in accolades as the Middle Tennessee transfer was named the co-recipient of the Ohio Valley Conference's Newcomer of the Week award. 

The weekly OVC honors are selected by the league's sports information contacts. 

Jones averaged 12 points for her first two contests, but against Jacksonville State, the Jackson native scored 21 points on 7-of-9 shooting, including a 4-for-6 effort from 3-point range. Jones also had four steals. 

She split the honor with UT Martin redshirt sophomore guard Seygan Robins. The Louisville transfer scored in double figures for the first time in her career with 16 points, six assists, two rebounds and two steals. 

The Skyhawks' Chelsey Perry topped Tech's Kesha Brady in the voting for Player of the Week as Perry collected a double-double against Samford with 31 points and 11 rebounds. Brady averaged 26.5 points in two contests, scoring 26 at Chattanooga and 27 against JSU with a career-high 13-of-16 effort at the charity stripe, including the game-winning free throws with four seconds remaining.

Murray State freshman Katelyn Young won the league's Freshman of the Week honor after scoring 20 points on 7-of-12 shooting against Mississippi Valley. She was 6-for-6 from the line with three assists, two steals and two blocks. 

The Golden Eagles return to action on Wednesday as they host Western Carolina. Tipoff is slated for 6 p.m.
