Saints Sweep Weekly MBB Honors - Crane, Harrison Recognized

12/08/25 | 3:41 PM

HELENA, Mont. – Following a pair of big performances on the road against ranked opponents, Carroll Men's Basketball players Kellen Harrison and Isaiah Crane swept the seventh installment of the 2025-26 Erck Hotels/Frontier Conference Men's Basketball Players of the Week honors, announced Monday by the conference office.

Offensive Player of the Week: Isaiah Crane, Carroll

Crane, a redshirt sophomore guard from Portland, Ore., was selected as the Offensive Player-of-the-Week.

Crane, the 2024-25 Frontier Conference leading scorer, was back at it again in a pair of ranked road victories over No. 23 Montana Western and No. 4 Montana Tech for Carroll, who remain undefeated in Frontier Conference play.

Crane led the Saints with 24 points in a dominant 95-71 win over UMW, and followed the standout performance up with 22 points in a 95-93 overtime victory over Tech - helping lift Carroll to its first win in Butte in seven years.

For the week, Crane was 13 of 28 from the field (46.4 percent) and hit 18 of 20 attempts from the free-throw line. All said and done, he averaged 23.0 points per game, 2.5 assists per game, and 2.0 offensive rebounds per game for the Fighting Saints.

This is Crane's fifth career Erck Hotels / Frontier Conference Player of the Week award, and first honor of the '25-26 season.

Defensive Player of the Week: Kellen Harrison, Carroll 

Harrison, a sophomore from Bozeman, Mont., was selected as the Defensive Player of the Week.

Harrison once again flashed his quick hands in a pair of big time wins over No. 23 Montana Western and No. 4 Montana Tech on the road, fueling the Carroll Men as they remain undefeated in league play.

Harrison stole the ball five times and grabbed seven defensive rebounds in Carroll's lopsided 95-71 win at UMW. He followed the impressive performance up with four steals and two defensive rebounds in the Fighting Saints' 95-93 overtime victory over the Orediggers in Butte.

For the week, Harrison averaged 4.5 steals and 4.5 defensive rebounds per game.

This is Harrison's third career Erck Hotels / Frontier Conference Player of the Week award - with all three coming in the last seven weeks.
