La Salle redshirt sophomore Jordan Price was named the GoExplorers.com Student-Athlete of the Week. He is also the A-10 and Big 5 Player of the Week. 
 
Price averaged 28.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.5 assists in two games for La Salle this week. The guard from Decatur, Ga., shot 15-for-29 (.517) from the field, including 6-for-11 (.545) from three. He was also 21-for-24 (.875) from the line.
 
His most exciting play of the week earned him the No. 2 spot on SportsCenter's Top 10, a half-court buzzer-beater vs. American to complete a 20-point comeback and force overtime.
 
Price scored 26 points and tallied six rebounds and five assists versus the Eagles. He then scored a career-high 31 points at Towson, making him the first A-10 player with multiple 30-point games this season.  Price is one of four players in nation with multiple 25 point, 5 rebound, 5 assist games this season.
 
The guard is the first Explorer to have two 30-point games in a season since Rodney Green in 2009-10 and the first La Salle sophomore with two 30-point games since 2003-04.The 31 points at Towson are the most by an Explorer since Earl Pettis had 33 vs. Temple on February 22, 2012.
 
Price is the first sophomore Explorer to earn A-10 weekly honors since Tyreek Duren did on January 23, 2012 and just the third in program history.
