Evans claims her third Choice Hotels NEC Rookie of the Week award this season thanks to a pair of double-digit scoring efforts. The 5-foot-9 freshman averaged 16.5 points and 6.5 rebounds over two NEC victories. Evans accounted for more than 25 percent of the Pioneers’ offense by scoring 13 points in a 51-47 win at the Mount. Tallying her highest single-game point total since scoring 24 in a road win at Binghamton on Dec. 21, Evans poured in 20 points to go along with seven rebounds to end the week at Wagner. The host Seahawks twice cut Sacred Heart’s lead to five points in the second half, and twice Evans answered. Her steal and ensuing layup gave the Pioneers a 44-37 lead 4:16 after halftime and her two free throws provided the final 71-64 margin with 0:08 remaining. Evans’ 10.9 points per game average is second amongst NEC freshmen this season.
