ROCK HILL, S.C. --- Tusculum University forward Inady Legiste has been named the AstroTurf South Atlantic Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Week.

Legiste, a freshman from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, recorded his first collegiate double-double with 20 points and 12 rebounds in leading the Pioneers to a 60-59 road win at Anderson University last week.
