Starks caught fire last week, and with a 27.0 points per game average in a 2-0 week for the Bulldogs, is the recipient of his league-high fourth Choice Hotels/NEC Player of the Week award of the year. Starks shot 58.6 percent from the field (17-29), 60.0 percent from three-point range (9-15), 91.7 percent from the line (11-12), and to top if off, scored his 1,000th career point in an 87-79 win over LIU Brooklyn on Thursday night. He finished with 23 in the win, including 5-9 from outside the arc. Two days later, Starks posted his fifth 30+ point game of the season, dropping 31 on 9-14 from the floor and 4-6 from long distance as the Bulldogs won their fourth straight game and improved to 5-1 in NEC play with an 83-79 triumph over St. Francis Brooklyn. Starks now leads the NEC with 20.5 ppg, and ranks second in 3PFG (3.4/game) and third in FT percentage (.866).
