St. Mary's City, Md. - Stephanie Saint-Aubin (Bowie, Md./Elizabeth Seton) of the St. Mary's College of Maryland women's basketball team was unanimously selected by the Department of Athletics and Recreation as the January Athlete of the Month.

The 5-5 senior guard helped the Seahawks (6-13, 5-6 CAC) to a 4-6 record in January, including a 4-4 mark in conference action.  St. Mary's also put together its longest win streak of the season with three consecutive victories over league opponents, Gallaudet University, York (Pa.) College and Hood College.

Saint-Aubin averaged 17.0 points and 8.9 rebounds in 35.0 minutes per game.  She shot 57.0% (61-of-107) from the floor as well as 69.6% (48-of-69) from the free throw line.  Saint-Aubin also averaged 3.2 steals and 1.6 assists while recording four double-doubles.

She eclipsed 1,000 career points on January 3 with a game-best 17 points as Saint-Aubin has now amassed 1,144 points thus far with five games remaining in the regular season.

Saint-Aubin tallied a career-high 30 points on 9-of-15 shooting along with making 12-of-16 free throw attempts in the Seahawks' 65-63 win at Stevenson University on January 30, earning Capital Athletic Conference Player of the Week honors earlier in the week.  She hauled in a game-best 12 rebounds while adding six steals.

Saint-Aubin is currently tied for first with Gallaudet's Easter Faafiti in the conference with 17.7 points per game (48th in Division III).  She is also second in steals (3.1 spg), third in field goal percentage (.506), fifth in rebounding (8.8 rpg), and eighth in free throw percentage (.702).
