Sac State’s Natabou Named the ROAR Organic #BigSkyWBB Player of the Week

FARMINGTON, Utah (January 18, 2022) – Sacramento State’s Isnelle Natabou has been named this week’s ROAR Organic #BigSkyWBB Player of the Week for her performance in last week’s victory over Portland State.

Natabou recorded her sixth double-double of the season and helped Sacramento State to its first Big Sky win of the year. The center set a career-high with 22 rebounds and added 14 points in the 70-58 victory.  Natabou’s 22 rebound performance ties her for the third-most in a single game in the Big Sky record books. 

The Ceska Lip, Czech Republic native had 10 offensive rebounds and 12 defensive rebounds in her total which ranks second in school history and is tied for the fourth-most in NCAA Division I this year.  She scored 12 of her 14 points in the second half where she made 5-of-6 field goals and blocked a pair of shots.

In all, Natabou was 6-of-11 from the floor for a 55 percent shooting percentage against the Vikings. 

Natabou is one of only four players this season to have a 30-point scoring game and a 20-rebound game against Division I opponents and is the only non-senior among the group.

Others Nominated: Beyonce Bea, Idaho; Tomekia Whitman, Idaho State; Alaya Fitzgerald, Portland State; Jacinta Buckley, Eastern Washington; Darian White, Montana State
