Greg Allen of Navarro [College] averaged 20 points for the Bulldogs last week and has been named the Region XIV men's basketball Player of the Week for the week ending Sunday, Dec. 5.

Allen scored 18 points in Navarro's 63-57 victory over Tyler and 23 points in the Bulldogs' 84-79 victory over Paris, improving the Bulldogs' conference record to  2-1.

Allen shot 8-of-16 from 3-point range in the two games.

"The coaches just told me to shoot the ball with confidence," said Allen after his team's win over Tyler, in which he made six 3-pointers. "In the first half, I didn't shoot the ball that well, and in the second half I just went out and shot the ball with no conscience. I started hitting shots and it worked well for me."
