WICHITA, Kan. - The honors continue to roll in for Wichita State junior forward Corey Washington. A day after earning American Player of the Week honors, Washington can now add Oscar Robertson National Player of the Week to his resume.

The USBWA in conjunction with the Oscar Robertson Trophy recognize five National DI Players of the Week. Washington is one of five highlighted for their play during the week of Feb. 10-16. He is joined by Auburn's Denver Jones, Eastern Michigan's Jalen Terry, Wisconsin's John Tonje and Texas Tech's JT Toppin.

In a pair of wins last week, Washington averaged 17.5 points and 13.5 rebounds. He started the week with a 17-point, 12-rebound double-double vs. UTSA and closed with another monster double-double of 18 points and 15 rebounds in a win over No. 14 Memphis. He has scored 10 or more points in 14 consecutive games and his seven double-doubles this season are second on the team.

Winners of four in a row, Wichita State travels to Boca Raton for a matchup between the two hottest teams in the league Thursday night at 8 p.m. CT on ESPN2. Florida Atlantic has won its last five games entering the matchup.
