STILLWATER, Okla. – Oklahoma State's Natasha Mack was named the Big 12 Player of the Week for the second time this season it was announced today by the league office.

Mack, who was also tabbed as the league's player of the week on Dec. 28, led the Cowgirl basketball program to a pair of victories over TCU last week.

In OSU's 78-53 win in Fort Worth during the midweek, Mack recorded just the second triple-double in program history, finishing with 28 points, a season-high 17 rebounds and a career-high 10 blocked shots. The Lufkin, Texas native also added three assists and a career-best six steals in the contest.

The triple-double was the 29th in league history and just the 10th by a Big 12 player via points, rebounds and blocked shots. Additionally, it was the eighth time a player has recorded a triple-double in a Big 12 game and the first since 2017.

On Saturday, Mack scored 17 points in the third quarter alone on a 7-of-7 shooting effort in OSU's 69-50 win. She finished the contest with 19 points, 10 rebounds, four blocks and two steals to propel OSU to its sixth consecutive victory.

The 6-4 forward was also named the league's player of the week by College Sports Madness on Monday as well.
