DALLAS – Missouri State’s Kaemyn Bekemeier and Middle Tennessee’s Yu Han Lin earned Conference USA Women’s Basketball weekly honors. The 2025-26 Players of the Week are voted on by the league’s sports information directors.
 
CUSA Player of the Week – Kaemyn Bekemeier, Mo State – Jr. – G – Republic, Mo.
Bekemeier averaged 28.5 points and 12.5 rebounds across a 2-0 week for Missouri State (11-5, 3-0 CUSA). She had career performances with double-doubles in back-to-back games while shooting 54.8% from the field. On Thursday against Kennesaw State, Bekemeier recorded a career-high 26 points along with 11 rebounds. The Republic, Mo., native followed that performance setting a new career-high with 31 points, while matching her career-best 14 rebounds against Jax State on Saturday. She is one of just two Lady Bears since 1999-00 to post at least 31 points and 14 rebounds in a game (Casey Garrison, 2009-10). Her performance is one of just five such stat lines in NCAA Division I this season and it marked Mo State's first 30-point scorer since the 2021-22 season.
