DAHLONEGA - University of North Georgia (UNG) women's basketball player Averie Jones has been voted this week's Chick-fil-a Nighthawk of the Week.

Jones led the Nighthawks in scoring in both contests last week, scoring 21 at Carson-Newman, and a career-high 30 points against Southern Wesleyan at home. Against the Warriors, she knocked down eight 3-pointers, which puts her tied for 2nd in the record books for most in a single game.

The Nighthawk of the Week title sponsor is Chick-fil-a of Dahlonega, with each week's winner being treated to a complimentary combo meal at the Dahlonega restaurant. Located at 488 Morrison Moore Parkway East, Chick-fil-a loves to give back to the local area and is proud to be a community partner with UNG Athletics.
 
Beginning in the fall of 2014, the UNG athletic department began honoring one student-athlete each Monday morning as the Nighthawk of the Week. The award is chosen each Sunday evening by an award selection committee made up of members of the UNG athletics leadership team.
 
North Georgia will return to action when the Nighthawks open Peach Belt Conference play on Saturday, Dec. 6 at Clayton State.
