Johnea Donahue Named MAC Player of the Week
December 23, 2025 | Women's Basketball
CLEVELAND, Ohio (BGSU Strategic Communications) – Bowling Green State University women's basketball standout Johnea Donahue has been named the Mid-American Conference Player of the Week. The announcement was made by the conference office on Tuesday afternoon (Dec. 23).
Donahue earns the honor for the second time in her BGSU career, and the second time this season. She also captured the award on Nov. 18.
Donahue, a native of Fort Wayne, Ind. (Snider H.S.), led all players in both scoring and rebounding as the Falcons opened the MAC schedule with a 73-69 win over preseason conference favorite Kent State on Saturday afternoon (Dec. 20). Donahue, who had missed the previous two games due to injury, had 19 points and a career-high 11 boards in the win over the Golden Flashes. She hit a career high three three-pointers, going 3-for-4 from the arc.
Donahue had 13 of her points in the second half as the Falcons preserved the lead, and had two defensive rebounds after BG got stops in the final 90 seconds. She twice went to the free-throw line in the game's final 15 seconds, going 3-for-4 during that stretch to extend the lead to two possessions in each
Donahue and the Falcons will be back in action on Dec. 30, when BGSU heads to Ypsilanti to face Eastern Michigan in a 5:00 p.m. contest at the George Gervin GameAbove Center. BG's next home game is Jan. 3, 2026, when Central Michigan comes to the Stroh Center.
