LEICESTER, Mass. --- Senior guard Cassidy Harrison (Foxborough, Mass. / Foxborough) of the Becker College women's basketball team has been named the Becker Athlete of the Week for the week ending February 16, 2020.

Harrison continued her outstanding senior season, averaging 27.5 points per game for the Hawks in two Becker victories, leading her team to wins over Elms College (68-63) and Dean College (60-45). The senior team captain shot 45.2 percent from the floor and 36.8 percent from behind the arc, all while averaging 3.0 rebounds, 2.5 steals and 1.0 assists per contest.

Harrison's performance against Elms on Tuesday saw her pass former Becker great Beth Pion (Class of 2009) as the school's all-time leading scorer. Harrison tied Pion's mark with 1625 career points off a two-point shot just 4:05 into the third quarter to give herself 20 points for the game.  Moments later, with 4:03 to go in the quarter, Harrison scored off a layup to pass to set a new record.
