She started the week by playing an inspired second half en route to 11 points and seven rebounds in a 67-59 win over Point Loma on Dec. 3. Two nights later, O'Brien posted a game-high 18 points (14 in second half), eight rebounds, and four steals to help the Urban Knights defeat California Baptist for the first time in program history, 74-66.
