PITTSBURGH – Katie Chamberlain of women's gymnastics and Justin Champagnie of men's basketball named the Office Depot/Supra Student-Athletes of the Week following impressive performances in their respective sports.
At Sunday's home opener, Chamberlain earned her second consecutive uneven bars title with a career-high score of 9.900. Her score tied for eighth place all-time for bars in the Pitt record book and is the Panthers' highest individual score of the season. The junior is the first Panther to earn a 9.900 on bars since Michaela Burton in 2020. Chamberlain is currently ranked No. 14 in the nation on bars by RoadToNationals.com.
Champagnie averaged 24.0 points, 11.0 rebounds, 2.5 blocks and 3.5 steals per game, while going 19-of-27 (.704) from the field, including 6-of-10 (.600) from three-point range for the week. He matched a career-high with 31 points, on 12-of-15 shooting from the field, to go along with 14 rebounds and a career-best five blocks in Tuesday's win over Duke. He recorded his fifth game with 20+ points and 10+ rebounds and became the first player in program history to post 30+ points, 10+ rebounds and 5+ blocks in a game. Champagnie closed the week with 17 points, eight rebounds and a career-high five steals in a one-point road loss to Wake Forest. He went 7-of-12 from the field with a pair of three-point field goals in the contest.
