MORAGA, Calif. - Emily Foy posted a career high 18 points with four three pointers in Saint Mary's 64-44 victory over Pacific to earn this week's Shamrock Office Solutions Student-Athlete of the Week award. After averaging just four points her freshman season, Foy has more than doubled her scoring average and currently leads the team in three-point shooting at 43%. Foy went 4-of-8 from beyond the arc in the team's 20-point win over the Tigers and finished the game an impressive 7-of-12 from the field.
Foy has been in and out of the starting lineup throughout the season but got her first start since January 2nd and did not disappoint with a career high 18 points to help the Gaels improve to 5-2 in WCC play and a five-way tie for first place. This is Emily Foy's first Shamrock Student-Athlete of the Week award of her SMC career and the program's fourth winner of the 2024-25 season (Zeryhia Aokuso, Kennedy Johnson and Maia Jones).
Saint Mary's returns to UCU Pavilion on Thursday, January 16th to take on Pepperdine at 6:30 PM. Stream the game live on ESPN+ and get your tickets online at smcgaels.com/tickets.
