Hinds Lady Bulldog Carmichael scores MACJC Player of the Week honor

Hinds Lady Bulldog Amaz Carmichael, of Lincoln, Ala., was named the Mississippi Association of Community and Junior Colleges Player of the Week for her performance the week of Nov. 11 to Nov. 17.

Carmichael, a freshman center, collected a double-double in her first collegiate game to help Hinds defeat Holmes 47-46 on the road last Thursday, Nov. 14.

Carmichael shot 64 percent (7-11) from the field and connected on two of her four free-throw attempts as she led scorers with 16 points. Most impressive was her play near the basketball, as she hauled in 19 total rebounds and blocked six shots for the Lady Bulldogs

Carmichael and the Lady Bulldogs will be back in action this Thursday, Nov. 21, and Friday, Nov. 22, when they travel to Senatobia to compete in the Northwest Classic.
