Grambling State University Athletics

Shakyla Hill was named the Grambling State University Female Student-Athlete of the Week.

Hill averaged 22.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 2.5 steals in victories over Alabama State and Alabama A&M last week. The Little Rock, Ark. native needed 14 points against Alabama State to become the fourth Grambling State women’s basketball player to reach 2,000 points and entered Saturday’s tilt against Alabama A&M just six assists shy of the school record. She matched both and with two points on Tuesday, Hill will move into third place in all-time GSU scoring.
