We’ve got a lot of Players of the Week in the B1G.
On Monday, the conference announced the Week 12 Players of the Week, but there were so many spectacular performances that several of the honors were shared. Three of the four categories had the award split. The only weekly honor that was solely claimed was Freshman of the Week.
This was another tough weekend of decisions for the B1G. Here are the Week 12 Players of the Week:
