Big week for Matthew Bryan-Amaning

Unless Arizona's Kevin Parrom or Derrick Williams have a big day and lead the Arizona Wildcats to win over Oregon State, Matthew Bryan-Amaning will probably win his first Pac-10 Player of the Week award on Monday.

The Washington senior forward averaged 19.5 points and nine rebounds while leading the Huskies last week in a pair of wins at USC and UCLA.

During a 73-67 victory over the Trojans, Bryan-Amaning tied freshman Terrence Ross for high-scoring honors with 18 points. He connected on 6 of 11 field goals and grabbed a team-high eight rebounds.

During at 74-63 victory over the Bruins, Bryan-Amaning finished with his fourth double double (21 points and 10 rebounds) of the season.

A Husky has not won the Pac-10 POW award this season.

SUNDAY AFTERNOON LINKS:

--- It's a little old, but here's a link to highlights of Washington's win over UCLA.

--- Oregon closed Mac Court with a 60-55 defeat to Arizona State last night.

--- Oregon State coach Craig Robinson ordered two-a-day practices at 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. to get ready for today's game against Arizona. The Beavers swept the Wildcats last season for the first time since 1983.
