As expected, Central men’s basketball sophomore, Colby Taylor, was named the Iowa Conference male athlete of the week after two dominating performances for the Dutch in the league’s opening seven days of play. Taylor recorded 30 points and 15 rebounds in a loss to Dubuque on Wednesday, and followed that up with 29 points and five boards in a win versus Luther on Saturday. The reigning d3hoops.com All-West Region rookie of the year shot better than 57% from the field for the two conference games, and almost 53% from beyond the arc. The 8 – 5 Dutch resume their season tomorrow on the road against Wartburg, who is currently in first place in the league.
