Basketball’s Chris Hargrove Named UNCP Athlete Of The Week

PEMBROKE – After leading the men's basketball team to a 1-1 record on the week, including a thrilling 66-63 victory over Georgia College on Sunday, senior guard Chris Hargrove has been named this week's UNCP Athlete of the Week, athletic department officials announced Tuesday.

Hargrove, a Wilmington native and High Point Central High School product, came off the bench in both games, but still averaged a team-best 15.0 points per game to go along with a 5.0 rebounding average. He also contributed four assists, two blocks and one steal to complement a 55.6 percent accuracy from the field, as well as a 10-of-17 (58.8 percent) tally from the free throw line.

Hargrove began his week with a monster effort in a last-minute loss to Montevallo on Friday, tallying 19 points, four rebounds, two assists and a pair of blocks in the 67-64 setback, but came up big in the win over the Bobcats as well. In helping to snap UNCP's 11-game series losing streak to Georgia College, Hargrove turned in an 11-point, 6-rebound night that was highlighted by a 5-of-9 success rate from the charity stripe.

A Rockingham Community College transfer, Hargrove has played in 44 games in his two-year career in the Black and Gold. The senior boasts career averages of 10.2 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.4 steals per contest.
