Women's basketball guard Erin Walsh has been named Lee University's Female Athlete of the Week after etching her name into the record books on Thursday night against Hiwassee College.

Walsh led the Lady Flames to a 100-49 throttling of the Tigers as the Lady Flames finished regular season play with four consecutive victories. The freshman sharpshooter tied a Lee record with eight made 3-point baskets and ended with a career-high 30 points. Walsh hit 10-of-16 from the field and 8-of-14 from beyond-the-arc. 

On Saturday the Knoxville, Tenn. native scored 22 points to help lead the Lady Flames to a thrilling 64-61 win over rival Shorter University. Walsh was 8-of-17 from the field and 3-of-8 from 3-point distance. 

Walsh averages 14.3 points per game and hits 32.7 percent of her 3-point attempts. The freshman plays 31.8 minutes a contest and has started all 26 games this season for head coach Marty Rowe.

Lee will play Hiwassee for the second time in a week on Thursday (6 p.m.) to open up the NCCAA Mid-East Region Tournament from Walker Arena. The winner will play the winner of Bluefield College and Tennessee Temple on Friday at 6 p.m.
