Griggs Named Peach Belt Player of the Week
Clayton State women’s basketball player
Drameka “MeMe” Griggs has been a
shining star so far for the fourth-ranked
Clayton State women’s basketball team,
and she was recognized Tuesday by the
Peach Belt Conference office for her out-
standing play.
Griggs, a preseason All-PBC selection,
was named Peach Belt Conference Player
of the Week after leading the Lakers to
three victories. A guard from Ellenwood,
Ga., she averaged 20 points per game,
while shooting 60 percent from the field.
The 5-foot-5 senior started off the week
with 20 points, two rebounds, two assists
and two steals at
S o u t h e a s t
Regional oppo-
nent Newberry,
then added 14
more
against
Chowan, playing
10 fewer minutes
in a lopsided vic-
tory Saturday in
the Loch Shop
Classic.
Griggs came back the next day with a her-
culean effort to score half of Clayton
State's points with 26 in a 52-48 win over
Lenoir-Rhyne, a key region victory. She
hit 11-of-16 shots in that game to go with
five rebounds and eight steals.
For the week, she averaged 4.3 steals per
game and hit 85 percent of her free
throws. Griggs is currently fourth in the
PBC in scoring with 20 points per game,
third in field goal percentage and second
in total steals.
