Sophomore guard Latif Rivers averaged 19 points in a pair of double-digit home wins over western Pennsylvania foes Robert Morris and Saint Francis (PA) to extend Wagner’s winning streak to four games and earn his second Choice Hotels/NEC Player of the Week honor of the season. Playing Robert Morris in front of an MSG-viewing audience on Thursday, the 6-1 guard led all scorers with 28 points, including 17 in the first half and 15 from the charity stripe (15-17) for the game, as the Seahawks prevailed 80-69. The 15 free throws matched an NEC single-game season-high and were the most by a Wagner player since NEC Hall of Famer Terrance Bailey converted a school-record 18 against Marist way back on February 1, 1986. He also shot 50% from downtown, sinking three of his six 3-point attempts, and grabbed four boards, all of which came on the defensive side. It was more of the same from Rivers two days later as he scored in double-figures again, this time chipping in 10 while collecting four rebounds and a pair of steals in a 72-54 triumph over Saint Francis (PA). Rivers is currently the NEC’s 11th-leading scorer at 15.0 ppg. He is also the league’s second-ranked free throw shooter at 89.6 percent, a figure that ranks him 11th in the nation.
