Markisic Named RRAC Offensive Player of the Week

SHREVEPORT, La. – LSU Shreveport graduate guard Selma Markisic has been named the Red River Athletic Conference Offensive Player of the Week following her standout performance in the Pilots' 94-69 road victory over Wiley College.

Markisic, a native of Brooklyn, N.Y., led the way for the Pilots with 27 points, shooting 8-of-16 from the field, 4-of-9 from beyond the arc, and 7-of-9 from the free-throw line. She also contributed five rebounds, two assists, and four steals in the win, helping LSUS improve to 2-0 on the season.

Her scoring effort provided a spark for the Pilots' offense, which has been dominant through their first two contests. Markisic's ability to score efficiently from multiple levels and impact both ends of the floor made her a clear choice for this week's conference honor.

The Pilots will return to action on Thursday, Nov. 7, when they travel to Southern University at New Orleans to continue their early-season road stretch.
