Reid State Community College freshman forward Jayelen Jonas has cemented his status as a premier talent in the Alabama Community College Conference (ACCC) following a historic scoring week. Leading the Lions to a perfect 2-0 record, Jonas averaged 30.5 points per game, highlighted by a dominant 41-point display on the road.

The North Lauderdale, Fla. native began the week with a clinic in efficiency during a home victory against Bevill State. Playing just 22 minutes, the freshman notched 20 points, providing the offensive spark necessary to secure the conference win. Jonas followed that performance with a career-high 41 points at Marion Military Institute, single-handedly out-pacing the opposition in a hostile road environment to ensure a Reid State sweep for the week.
