In the Bruins' only game of the week, she recorded her second double-double of the year in leading UCLA to an 82-68 win over No. 3 Baylor.
She scored 20 points and added 13 assists while shooting 50 percent from three-point range (3-for-6) against the Bears. The 13 assists were tied for the 8th-most in UCLA history.
The win was UCLA's 32nd-straight home victory (second longest in the country to UConn) and the 10th-straight home win over a ranked team. It also marked UCLA's first win over a top-three opponent since beating No. 2 Stanford on Jan. 4, 2008.
This marks the 55th all-time selection for UCLA and second-career weekly honor for Canada.
Also nominated: Sam Thomas, ARIZ; Kianna Ibis, ASU; Kristine Anigwe, CAL; Ruthy Hebard, ORE; Mikayla Pivec, OSU; Kristen Simon, USC; Megan Huff, UTAH; Amber Melgoza, WASH; Borislava Hristova, WSU.
