Harper named conference freshman player of the week

Auburn guard Jared Harper was named the SEC's freshman of the week on Monday. This marks the second time the freshman has been recognized as the freshman of the week this season.  

The point guard averaged 17.5 points and hit 70 percent of his shots behind the arc last week in a loss to Tennessee and a win at Alabama.

Harper shot 52.6 percent overall on the court. He scored 14, including 11 in the second half, in Auburn's 82-77 victory at Alabama.

The 165-pound point guard hit five three pointers on his way to 21 total points against Tennessee. 

Auburn (15-8, 4-6 SEC) returns to action Tuesday against Mississippi State at Auburn Arena. Tip-off  is set for 8 p.m. CST on ESPNU.
