MASON CITY - NIACC freshman Mikayla Homola was selected as the ICCAC women's basketball player of the week award for the week of Oct. 30-Nov. 5.

Homola, who is from Maple Grove, Minn., shared the award with DMACC's Beth Atwood.

Homola scored 22 points in No. 9 NIACC's 99-82 win over No. 18 Illinois Central last Friday at the Konigsmark Klassic. She was eight of 13 from the field, including three three-point goals.

Homola also had three rebounds and one assist against Illinois Central.

On Saturday in a 90-61 win over Bay College, Homola scored 10 points with three steals, two assists and two rebounds.

Homola is the first NIACC women's player to earn ICCAC player of the week honors since Courtney Larson won the award in the initial week of the 2016-17 season.
