    A sweep against Purdue deserved an encore.

    Indiana guard Jalen Hood-Schifino swept the Big Ten’s weekly awards on Monday when he was named both the league’s player of the week and freshman of the week.

    The full release from IU Athletics follows

    Hood-Schifino Named Player, Freshman of the Week

    ROSEMONT, Ill. – Indiana freshman guard Jalen Hood-Schifino was named the Big Ten Player and Freshman of the Week, the league announced on Monday.

    Hood-Schifino is the first player to sweep the award since Kofi Cockburn (Illinois) on Nov. 25, 2019.

    The award marks the first career Player of the Week nod, while the Pittsburgh native has earned Freshman of the Week four times this season. Since the inception of the Freshman of the Week award ahead of the 2010-11 season, only Cody Zeller (7 times), Noah Vonleh (7), and Trayce Jackson-Davis (5) registered more honors at Indiana.

    Across the entire Big Ten Conference only Jared Sullinger (12 times, Ohio State), Bryce McGowens (8, Nebraska), Trey Burke (7, Michigan), Kofi Cockburn (7, Illinois), Hunter Dickinson (7), D’Angelo Russell (6, Ohio State), and Max Christie (5, Michigan State) have claimed the award more.

    Hood-Schifino averaged 25.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.0 steals in Indiana’s two road games last week.

    He became the first freshman in the last 25 seasons to score at least 35 points in a road victory over an Associated Press top-5 team when he tallied a career-best 35 points, seven rebounds, and two assists at No. 5/5 Purdue on Feb. 25. The Hoosiers won the game, 79-71.

    His 35 points also marked the second-most points scored by a Hoosier freshman on record. Jay Edwards holds the top spot after ripping off 36 points at Minnesota on March 10, 1988. The scoring output also marked the third most by a major conference freshman this season, trailing only 41-point and 36-point games from Alabama freshman Brandon Miller.

    JHS is the first Hoosier to record multiple 30-point games in his debut season since Eric Gordon accomplished the feat three times during the 2007-08 season.

    The No. 15/13 Indiana Hoosiers will close out the regular season with homes games against Iowa (Feb. 28) and Michigan (March 5).
