BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – Texas Southern University forward Jeremy Combs has been named the Southwestern Athletic Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Week following an exceptional effort against arch-rival Prairie View A&M this past weekend. The league announced the honor Tuesday afternoon.
Combs, a 6-7 transfer from Dallas, Texas posted 23 points, 20 rebounds, a pair of assists, one block and one steal during TSU's setback against Prairie View A&M.
