Junior forward Michaela Onyenwere of the UCLA women's basketball team has been selected the UCLA/Muscle Milk Student-Athlete of the Week for Jan. 6-12.

Onyenwere put up 37 points and 17 rebounds across No. 8/9 UCLA's road sweep of Utah and Colorado this past weekend to help the Bruins become the last undefeated team in the nation at 16-0. The junior scored 18 points on 6-for-11 shooting in the victory over Utah and also added nine boards and two assists. Onyenwere then scored 19 points against Colorado in a return to her home state. She tied a career-high with three three-pointers made in the performance and posted her 52nd-career double-digit scoring performance and 13th game with at least 10 points this year. Onyenwere was strong on the boards once again at Colorado, grabbing eight rebounds in the win. UCLA is now 5-0 in Conference play for the first time since the 2002-03 season.

This is Onyenwere's third UCLA/Muscle Milk Student-Athlete of the Week award of the season and fifth of her career.

Also nominated: Daniella Hawkins, Swimming & Diving; Kyla Ross, Gymnastics; Chris Smith, M. Basketball.
