Arizona guard Allonzo Trier won the first Pac-12 Player of the Week award this season after hitting the 30-point mark in each of the Wildcats' wins over NAU and UMBC.
Trier had 32 points on 10-for-13 shooting on Friday in UA's 101-67 win over NAU and 30 points on 10-for-18 shooting to help the Wildcats beat UMBC 103-78 on Sunday.
The junior guard from Seattle was the first player in the Sean Miller Era to hit the 30-point mark in back-to-back games and the eighth overall. He was the second UA player to do so in the first two games of the season, after Michael Dickerson hit 30 points against North Carolina and NAU in 1996-97.
That season ended, of course, with Arizona winning the national championship.
Among others, Trier beat out Oregon State's Tres Tinkle, UCLA's Kris Wilkes, Cal's Don Coleman and Stanford's Reid Travis for the conference honor.
Tinkle had 24 points on 8-for-11 shooting, including a 3/4-court shot at the halftime buzzer, to lead OSU over Southern Utah 99-82. Wilkins had 18 in shorthanded UCLA's win over Georgia Tech in China. Coleman had 31 points in a Cal loss to UC Riverside and 30 in a win over Cal Poly, while Travis averaged 24.5 points and 9.0 rebounds in Stanford wins over Cal Poly and Pacific.
