ST. PAUL, Minn. – Macalester College senior guard Peyton Starks (St. Louis, Mo./John Burroughs School) was selected to the D3hoops.com All-Region 9 second team, the website announced today. Starks, who was named the MIAC Offensive Player of the Year after leading the conference in scoring for the third consecutive year, makes her second appearance on the All-Region 9 team after being included on the third team a year ago.

A three-time All-MIAC selection, Starks averaged 18.6 points per game this year, nearly three points per game more than the second-leading scorer in the conference.

Her scoring average ranks 36th in Division III and fourth in Region 9.

This season Starks earned MIAC Offensive Player of the Week honors three times while scoring at least 20 points in 11 games, including a season-best 32 points against UW-Superior on Nov. 16. She also made an impact on the defensive end, averaging 6.5 rebounds and 2.0 steals per game to rank eighth and third, respectively in the MIAC.

In 101 career games at Macalester, Starks recorded 1,652 points to finish as the Scots' second-leading scorer all-time. Her 639 rebounds rank eighth on Macalester's all-time list. She also holds career school records for field goals (646) and free throw percentage (.832).
