Oklahoma senior forward Skylar Vann was named Big 12 Player of the Week on Monday.

Vannโ€™s recent showings earned her the title for the second time in her career.

Vann averaged 20 points and 9.5 rebounds in OUโ€™s last two outings against No. 10 Texas (19-3, 6-3 Big 12) and Kansas (10-10, 3-6). She recorded her 10th career double-double against Texas on Wednesday with 19 points and 12 rebounds. Her performance helped OU topple the Longhorns 91-87 in its biggest upset of the season.

On Saturday, Vann scored 21 points and collected seven rebounds in the Soonersโ€™ gritty 60-55 win over Kansas. Vann averages the most points (15) and rebounds (seven) per game for the Sooners and has led them to a 7-1 Big 12 record and second place in the conference.

Oklahoma (13-6, 7-1 Big 12) is set to take on No. 2 Kansas State (20-1, 9-0) at 6 p.m. Wednesday in Norman on ESPN+.
