Casey Smith has accomplished something that only one other Stag has ever done. The redshirt sophomore was named the MAAC Rookie of the Week for the sixth time this season which ties Katelyn Linney for the most weekly awards by a Stag in her rookie season.
“I thought Smitty played extremely well,” Head Coach Joe Frager said. “The Iona game is probably the best game she has played all year. Not only did she have 19 points for us but to have nine assists from the post position with no turnovers is a phenomenal effort. It continued against Manhattan, we wanted to come out strong, I thought she had strong back-to-back efforts. We’re very happy for her getting this award.”
Casey Smith averaged 13 points per game during the final weekend of the regular season helping the Stags to the number three seed for the third-straight season.
