Pacific senior Christian Maraker (Varberg, Sweden/Vastergardskolan) earned his third consecutive Big West Men's Basketball Player of the Week honor, leading the Tigers to a convincing 99-63 victory over non-conference rival Fresno State.

A 6-9 forward, Maraker posted 24 points, eight rebounds, four assists and two steals in 33 minutes of action. It was the fourth time he eclipsed the 20-point mark this year. He made nine of 13 shots from the field and drained all five of his free throw attempts.

He had 15 points and six rebounds in the first half alone to help stake the Tigers to a four-point halftime lead. The Tigers then pulled away in the second half, posting the second-most lopsided win in the all-time series with the 36-point margin of victory.

Maraker leads the Big West with a .920 (46-of-50) free throw percentage while ranking third in scoring (18.7 ppg) and second in rebounding (8.7 rpg). He is the first player since Utah State's Nate Harris during the 2003-04 campaign to garner Player of the Week honors three straight weeks.
