Deanna Dawson #13, a 5-8 SO from Chicago, IIL. was selected as Defensive Player of the Week at the conference level.  Deanna is a solid defender that slid her knee cap out of place on Saturday and continued to play the entire game. She has played all minutes of all games so far this season and is a team leader from the back line. She plays as if her life depends on it and is worthy of recognition throughout season.
