DALLAS,Texas - Concordia Texas junior guard Joey Ramirez has been named the SCAC Men's Basketball Player of the Week, the league's office announced on Monday. Ramirez paced the Tornados to a 3-0 week in conference play while averaging 27.7 ppg and 7.3 rpg.

In a 92-74 victory over McMurry, he collected his fifth double-double of the season with 19 points and 10 boards. In the 84-67 victory over Centenary, Ramirez exploded for a career-high 41 points on only two free throw attempts to go along with eight rebounds.

The 41 points marked the most by a Tornado since Donovan Ford scored 51 points against the Univeristy of the Ozarks in the 2015-16 season. He then posted a game-high 23 points in the 81-70 win over the Ozarks. In the three games, Ramirez shot 65.4 percent (50 percent 3FG%) from the field.
