KEARSE
Lincoln University
Senior | Forward | Philadelphia, PA / Simon Gratz HS
In
perhaps the best week one player has had this season among independent
schools, Lincoln University senior forward Jarett Kearse
is a no-brainer for Association of Division III Independents Men’s
Basketball Player of the Week, after averaging 32.0 points, 9.3 rebounds,
and 4.3 assists per game with 17 three-pointers in a 3-0 week for the
Lions (14-5).
In wins against Delaware Valley College, Hood College, and Valley Forge
Christian College, Kearse, a 6-7 forward who shoots like a guard, amassed
96 points, 28 rebounds, 13 assists, four steals and three blocks, while
shooing .452 from the field (33-73), .370 from three-point range (17-46),
and .706 from the line (12-17).
When LU crushed VFCC by 64 on February 3, 112-48, Kearse had 35 points,
10 rebounds, and five assists, with three three-pointers, while shooting
12-of-22 from the floor and 8-of-9 from the stripe.
His high game for the week came on February 2, when he compiled a 36-point,
14-rebound effort in a 77-71 win against Hood. In that game, he hit
an amazing nine threes (9-22) and 13 field goals (13-28) in 40 minutes
for the first of two double-doubles on the week.
The former University of West Virginia player opened his week with 25
points, seven assists, and four rebounds on January 31 against DVC,
shooting 8-of-23 with five threes.
