NEW ORLEANS [February 4, 2025] - Jamal Gibson and Donte Briggs of Southern University at New Orleans (SUNO) Men's Basketball have been honored by the HBCU Athletic Conference again as this week's Players of the Week.

Briggs put up 15 points and seven assists last week. In Saturday's victory over Tougaloo College, Briggs hit three key 3-pointers and shot 75 percent from beyond the arc.
Gibson dominated on the glass for his eighth Defensive Player of the Week Honor.
