Forward Dariana Santos (180-F-1991) had an amazing evening in the last round for Equipo Femenino Fenix, receiving a Hoops Agents TSF Player of the Week award for round 1.
The 33-year old player was the main contributor (22 points, five rebounds and two assists) to her team's victory, helping them to edge out Indias (#5, 0-2), the league's bottom-ranked team 67-64. Fenix was forced-out from the top positions in Dominican Rep. TSF. Fenix is a typical solid league team placed somewhere in the middle or a little bit lower in the standings. They need more victories to improve their 1-1 record. In the team's last game Santos had a remarkable four three-pointers out of 6 attempts. It's her second year at Fenix and it's hard to imagine this team without her. Former Wiley College star has very solid stats this year. Santos is in league's top in points (2nd best: 20.5ppg) and averages impressive 56.3% from behind 3-point line.

The second best player in last round's games was American Sydni Tears (183-G) of Indias del Sur. Tears had a very good evening with 20 points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists. Bad luck as Indias was edged by Fenix (1-1) 67-64. The season is still at the very beginning and this lost game may not be such crucial, of course if they start win the games. Let's wait for the next round. Tears is a newcomer at Indias, but is already one of team's top players. She belongs to the best scorers in the league with 22.0ppg (#1). She also registered 9.0 boards per game.

Third on the list of top players last round was another Fenix's star - forward Anayelis Garcia (178-F-2002). Garcia scored 10 points and grabbed 5 rebounds. She was another key player of Equipo Femenino Fenix, helping her team with a 67-64 win against Indias (#5, 0-2). Fenix needs these victories very badly if they think about getting closer to top teams. Their record at this point is 1 victory and 1 lost game. The season just started for Garcia as she played only first game. But it already looks like she can be another team's leader.

4. Jensen Caretti (187-F/G-1997) of Immortals - 14 points and 9 rebounds

The Player of the week is selected based on efficiency calculation, but also including game result, importance of the game, if played recorded double-double/triple-double, etc.
The efficiency formula is a combination of various formulas used by different basketball organizations/leagues. We got involved many basketball scouts and journalists to assure it's accuracy.
The formula: 1.5*PTS + 3*(REB+AST+ST+BL-TO) - 2*BSAG - 4*PF + 3*PFRV + 4*(2FGPM+3FGPM) + 1.5*FTM - 3*(2FGPA-2FGPM) - 3*(3FGPA-3FGPM) - (FTA-FTM)
