Allen Graves Claims Sixth WCC Freshman of the Week Honor

SAN BRUNO, Calif. - Santa Clara men's basketball forward Allen Graves capped off the 2025-26 regular season by claiming his sixth West Coast Conference Freshman of the Week honor. The Broncos won a program-record 10 weekly awards this season in total. 

Graves won the final iteration of this year's freshman of the week honors after averaging 17 points on 57.1 percent shooting while also averaging 5.5 rebounds and a steal in SCU's final two regular-season games against Saint Mary's and Oregon State. The Ponchatoula, La., product began the week with a team-high 20 points (8-of-15 FG) to go with six rebounds, a pair of steals and a block on the road against Saint Mary's. The big man then closed out the regular season with a 14-point, five-rebound effort in the Broncos' 93-72 win over Oregon State on senior day. 

Graves' six honors are the most player/freshman of the week awards in a single season in program history. The Broncos' 10 combined player and freshman of the week awards are also the most in program history.
