TERRE HAUTE, Ind. -- Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology sophomore forward Cole Pride was named the HCAC Men's Basketball Athlete of the Week after a career day led the Fightin' Engineers to a 101-76 victory in the final game of the season.

Pride had a career-night in Wednesday's 101-78 win over Earlham as he scored 29 points on 12-18 shooting and 3-9 from the outside.

The sophomore civil engineering major from Osgood, Indiana was a perfect 9-9 shooting from inside the arc, and he pulled down 8 rebounds as he dominated the paint all game long.

The Athlete of the Week award is the first of the career for Pride, and he joins teammates Miles McGowen and Joey Schmitz as the three Fightin' Engineers to earn Player of the Week honors this season.

Pride and the Fightin' Engineers return to action on Friday, February 28, as they travel to Anderson University for the HCAC Semifinals. Rose-Hulman battles Franklin College on Friday at 7 PM, and with a win, they will play the winner of Anderson and Hanover with an NCAA Tournament berth on the line.
