Rivers averaged 24.5 points in two games last week to collect his league-leading fifth Choice Hotels NEC Rookie of the Week award. He shot 52.0 percent from the floor and hit at a 50.0 percent clip (6-12) from three-point range. Rivers also made 17-18 shots from the line, a sizzling 94.4 percent conversion rate. Rivers poured in 17 of his career-high 30 points in the second half to propel the Seahawks to a 90-80 win over Quinnipiac on Thursday. He dished for four assists, shot 7-12 from the field - including 4-6 from outside the arc - and was a perfect 12-12 from the line to become the first Wagner freshman to score 30 since Courtney Pritchard did so on February 15, 2001 at St. Francis (NY). Rivers followed up with another strong second half, scoring 13 of his 19 points after intermission in a 79-76 setback to Sacred Heart on Saturday. His jumper with 1:16 to play pulled the Seahawks to within one point. Rivers is the NEC leader and ranks third in the country in free throw accuracy, converting 93.9 percent of his attempts. He is also tenth in the league in scoring (14.2 ppg), eighth in made three-pointers (2.1/game) and 12th in three-point percentage (.371). Only four players in NEC history have won more Rookie of the Week accolades in a single-season than the Elizabeth, NJ native.
