BOSTON - Junior Alex Young turned in one of the finest single-game performances in Boston University women's basketball history on Sunday afternoon to earn this week's GoTerriers.com Student-Athlete of the Week nod.

Young exploded for 37 points - 26 coming in the second half alone - to tie Julie Schmidt (`95) for the third-highest scoring output in a single game as well as Kristi Dini (`09) and Katie Meinhardt's (`07) school record for threes. Young was an impressive 14-for-21 from the field and 7-for-9 from 3-point land. She also brought down four boards with one block, one steal and two assists.

With Young's help, the Terriers advance to the title game for the seventh time in the last nine seasons. They will face fourth-seeded Hartford next Saturday (March 12) at 7 p.m. at Case Gymnasium.
