Applegate secured his first GSC Player of the Week award this season following a week where he put up averages of 22.5 points, 10.5 rebounds, a block, and made 89 percent of his three-point attempts. The sophomore got out to a fast start as he dropped 23 points on 89 percent shooting, including a perfect five-for-five from beyond the arc, nabbed 12 rebounds, and blocked a shot in an 82-81 loss to UAH. He was not done there, however, as he scored 22 points on 75 percent shooting, made three of his four three-point attempts, grabbed nine rebounds, and had both a block and a steal against West Alabama.
