VALDOSTA, Ga. – Valdosta State women's basketball graduate transfer Kwajelin Farrar and men's basketball redshirt junior Cam Hamilton were named the Steel's Jewelry Blazer Athletes of the Week.  This is the second honor of the season for Farrar and first for Hamilton.
 
Farrar, a native of Grovetown, Ga., was named Gulf South Conference East Division Co-Player of the Week, after helping lead VSU to a GSC-best 7-0 record with two wins at Shorter last weekend.  Farrar led the team at 14.5 points per game, went a blistering 14 of 19 from the field (.737), pulled down 14 rebounds for a team-best average of 7.0 per game.  She had two assists and three steals, scoring 29 points in the two starts.  Farrar recorded 17 points and tied her VSU career-high with 12 rebounds last Saturday in the second win over Shorter as she went 8 of 11 from the field and tied her VSU career-high with two steals.  It was her fourth double-double in seven starts this season.
