Marla Willard-Midwest Conference Performer of the Week

Tying one school record and closing in on another has earned Monmouth College’s Marla Willard (Pittsfield, Ill./Pittsfield) this week’s Midwest Conference Performer of the Week award in women’s basketball.
Willard picked up her first double-double of the season in Monmouth's 98-87 win over North Central last Wednesday. The junior forward pumped in 13 points and pulled down 21 rebounds, tying the Scots' single game rebounding record. She was especially good on the defensive glass, pulling down 17 defensive rebounds. She also dished out five assists, blocked two shots and had two steals. Her 76 career blocks are just two shy of the school record.
An education major, Willard is the daughter of Bradley and Stacie Willard.
