INDIANAPOLIS — BYU guard Delaney Gibb was selected as one of five Ann Meyers Drysdale National Players of the Week after recording the program's first triple-double in 40 years, the U.S. Basketball Writers Association announced on Tuesday.

With a 15-point, 10-rebound, 10-assist performance in BYU's 97-53 win over Montana on Saturday, Gibb notched the first triple-double by a Cougar player since 1986, and the first since 1982 to include points, rebounds and assists. She is one of two players in the country this season to record a triple-double, joining Washington's Sayvia Sellers.

The junior went 5-of-11 from the floor for 15 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists in the 97-53 victory over the Lady Griz. The Cougars outscored Montana 51-22 in the second half, with Gibb dishing eight assists and grabbing six rebounds after halftime.

The native of Raymond, Alberta, averaged 13.7 points, 9.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 1.0 steal and 0.7 blocks for the week to lead BYU to a 3-0 start for the fourth consecutive season. Gibb scored 17 points to lead all scorers in the season opener, including 4-of-9 from 3-point range, with seven rebounds, four assists, two blocks and a steal as BYU took down Idaho State.

Gibb was named the Big 12 Player of the Week on Monday, marking the first conference player of the week award for a Cougar since the 2023–24 season.

BYU returns to the Marriott Center on Wednesday, Nov. 11, to take on the Bethune-Cookman Wildcats. Tipoff is set for 11 a.m. MST, with the game streamed on ESPN+ with Spencer Linton and Kristen Kozlowski on the call. Fans can also tune in to live play-by-play on BYU Radio 107.9, byuradio.org and the BYU Radio App with Jason Shepherd.
