Last season Eastern Illinois senior
Macy McGlone finished second in the NCAA with 26 double-doubles earning Ohio Valley Conference Player of the Year honors.
Â
This season she opened the year with back-to-back double-doubles as she was named the OVC Player of the Week for the opening week of the season.
Â
McGlone scored 24 points with 13 rebounds in the opener at North Dakota. She came back two days later to score 27 points to go with 14 rebounds to post opening week averages of 25.5 points and 13.5 rebounds per game.
Â
Late in the game on Sunday at North Dakota State, McGlone became the 28th player in school history to pass the 1,000 point mark but also joined an even more elite group of four players with 1,000 points, 600 rebounds and 100 blocks for the Panthers.
Â
EIU returns to action on Thursday at No. 23 Illinois.
