Daniel Waguespack, a Senior from Baton Rouge, LA, has been named the SCAC men's basketball Player of the Week for games played on February 15 and 17, 2002.  Waguespack was superb this past weekend as he led the Majors to two convincing wins over Rhodes and Hendrix.  On Friday, Waguespack tallied 13 points, pulled down seven rebounds, dished out six assists, and blocked two shots as the Majors defeated Rhodes 89-77.  Then in Sunday's 83-54 victory over Hendrix, Waguespack was phenomenal as he had is best all-around game of his brilliant career.  Posting his first career triple double in his last game on the Millsaps' hardwood, the ubiquitous Waguespack netted 17 points, grabbed 14 rebounds, and made 11 steals with eight of his take-aways coming in the first half. The 11 thefts broke the SCAC's single-game record of nine - shared by Albert Johnson of Rhodes (2/4/94 vs. Trinity) and Stacy Vines of Hendrix (2/13/94 @ Sewanee).

With 40 seconds to go in the first frame, Waguespack picked off an errant Warrior pass for his 258th steal of his career as he etched his name in the SCAC record book as the league's all-time steals leader. Waguespack's 11 steals also allowed him to break the Millsaps' single-season steals mark.  The senior has 70 take-aways to his credit this season, surpassing the mark he set last year of 69.  His 17 points also enabled him to reach the 1,600
point plateau for his career, as he became only the second Millsaps player to ever accomplish that feat (placing him third all-time in the SCAC).

For the season, Waguespack is sixth in the SCAC in scoring, averaging 15.0 points per game and is 10th in rebounding with 5.8 boards per game.  He leads the conference in steals per game (2.92) and is eighth in assists per game (2.46), ninth in field goal percentage (45.0%) and seventh in blocked shots per game (1.00).
