BURNSVILLE, Minn. – Bemidji State University Men's Basketball senior Dalton Albrecht has been named the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference Player of the Week for the second time this season after leading the Beavers to two victories this past week.
 
Albrecht led the league in scoring and rebounding during the week and finished second in field goal percentage to earn his second career NSIC weekly accolade. The Grafton, N.D., native averaged a double-double with 28.5 points and 10.5 rebounds while shooting 74.2 percent from the field (23-of-31) and 61.5 percent from three-point range (8-of-13).
 
He began the weekend scoring a then season-high 26 points while grabbing nine rebounds in the Beavers 86-70 win against Northern State at BSU Gymnasium. He followed that performance by scoring a career-high 31 points off 13-of-15 shooting from the field and 5-of-6 from three while also pulling in 12 rebounds at Minnesota Crookston.
 
Albrecht was also named the NSIC Player of the Week earlier this season on Dec. 18.
 
He is joined by fellow Beaver John Sutherland as the NSIC's Shining Five after Sutherland averaged 24.5 points per game and 9.5 rebounds. Minnesota Duluth's Drew Blair, Minnesota State's Malik Willingham and Winona State's Connor Dillon were also recognized as NSIC Shining Five selections.
