Hyde honored as Summit Player of the Year

The Journal Gazette

IPFW’s Amanda Hyde was named The Summit League Player of the Year in voting of the league's nine coaches, sports information directors and select media members as announced by the league office on Thursday.

Hyde is the first IPFW women's basketball player to earn Summit League Player of the Year honors.

The last Mastodon to earn Player of the Year accolades was Lindy Jones who earned the award in the Great Lakes Valley Conference during the 1995-96 season.

Hyde was also named to the First Team All-Summit League. Teammate Erin Murphy was an honorable mention selection.

Hyde led the Summit League in scoring by averaging 18.7 points per game. She reached a double figure scoring total in 25 of IPFW's 28 games which included scoring 20 or more points 12 times.

The junior from Findlay, Ohio scored a career-high 43 points in a 78-65 win over Southern Illinois this year. 43 points placed Hyde in a tie for second all-time in Summit League history, and it also tied the IPFW school record for most points in a single game.

Hyde was selected as the Summit League Player of the Week on Dec. 3 after high-level performances at Indiana and at Southern Illinois. She averaged 27 points, six rebounds, 3.5 assists, and two steals per game during that week of competition.

Her second Player of the Week award was received on Dec. 31 when she averaged 27.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, four assists, and 2.5 steals in games against IUPUI and Western Illinois to start the Summit League schedule.
