Two Genesee Region League girls basketball players earned Player of the Week honors for the week of Dec. 2-8.

Holley's Julie Brooks hit two free throws with 13 seconds left to send the Hawks into overtime against Medina on Friday. The Hawks won the game 39-32 in overtime, giving the squad its first win in two years, and Brooks - a sophomore - finished with 22 points and 19 rebounds and won the award for GR Division I.

Holley lost to Kendall 28-22 on Monday night.

Junior forward Molly Burgess of Lyndonville won the award for Division II after scoring 40 points in two games at the Barker Tournament.

She had 10 points and nine rebounds against Barker and made the All-Tournament Team.

There were no nominations for the boys in the GR this week.

Batavia's Brittany Mazurkiewicz earned the honor for Monroe County in the opening week of the season after scoring 35 points with 11 steals and four assists in the Alexander Tournament, where she earned MVP honors.
