📰 News we're reading

• LETU Notebook: Brinkoeter honored by SCAC (news-journal.com) — From Suwanee, the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference announced that LeTourneau junior forward Logan Brinkoeter earned Defensive Player of the Week honors after averaging a double-double in two wins. The notebook also recaps LeTourneau women’s exhibition loss at Grambling State and notes both teams’ upcoming games after Christmas. Local readers mainly see Suwanee as the conference’s announcement site, not a host for play.
