BRIDGEWATER, N.J. - After posting 16 points and grabbing four rebounds in Chicago State's heartbreaking 77-75, 2OT loss to Stonehill CSU freshman Aiyanna Culver (Queens, NY/Christ the King) was named NEC/Atlantic Tomorrow's Office Rookie of the Week. Culver, who is CSU's second leading scorer at 12.4 ppg, earns her second consecutive NEC weekly honor.
Since CSU has started conference play, the Queens, NYC native has increased her output and is averaging 14.7 ppg and 4.0 rpg. On the season, Culver has reached double figures in 11 contests, including her first collegiate outing against Iowa State, and has reached her career-high 20 points twice this season.
