Arizona Basketball: Kylan Boswell named Freshman of the Week

Following a terrific week, Arizona Basketball guard Kylan Boswell was selected as the Pac-12 Freshman of the Week after huge games against the LA schools. 

Arizona Basketball has had a rather solid year this season, and a big part of their recent success has been the play of freshman guard Kylan Boswell, as the 17-year-old guard was named the Pac-12 Freshman of the Week.

An award that was given out on Monday afternoon, Boswell was named Conference Freshman of the Week after his stellar performances against USC and UCLA this past week.

In his game against USC, Kylan was a big part of the Wildcats’ win, finishing his day with 14 points on 4-5 shooting, including 2-3 from beyond the arc. Boswell also added with two rebounds, two assists, and two steals as Arizona went on to beat USC 87-81.

Against UCLA, he was just as impressive as he finished his night with another 14 points, two rebounds, and two assists on 5-7 shooting including 4-6 from three. Unfortunately, Arizona lost 82-73.

Because of his performance, Kylan Boswell was named the Pac-12 Freshman of the Week as he continues to shine for Arizona Basketball.

Things are heating up for Arizona Basketball, especially as the Wildcats begin preparing for March Madness, and a big part of their recent success has been the play of Kylan Boswell.

A player that came to Tucson a year earlier than originally anticipated, Boswell continues to surprise many as the freshman guard is averaging 4.5 points, 1.6 rebounds, and 1.6 assists per game on 42.4 percent field goal shooting, including 36.2 percent from three.

Boswell and the Wildcats will return to action on Thursday when they take on either Utah or Stanford. Should Arizona win that one, the Conference Tournament semifinals will begin on Friday!
