BUIES CREEK, N.C. – For the fourth time so far this season, freshman Jasmine Nivar has been selected as the CAA Rookie of the Week as announced by the conference Monday afternoon.
 
With the honor, Nivar surpasses Jasmine Felton (2024-25) and Ashlyn Hampton (2017-18) as the only play in program history to win a conference rookie/freshman of the week award for a fourth time.
 
Nivar averaged 15.5 points and 35.5 minutes over the first conference weekend, helping the Camels to a 1-1 start to CAA play. It's the first time in CU's short history in the CAA the team did not start conference play 0-2.
 
In the win over Drexel, Nivar scored 15 points to go along with four rebounds and a career-high five assists. She also led the team with a +13 +/- against the Dragons.
 
Against Towson, the Apex native led the Camels with 16 points while also pulling down five rebounds and dishing out three assists to go along with one block. 
 
The Camels are preparing for their first home conference matchups of the season this weekend, as they play host to Elon on Friday night followed by William & Mary on Sunday.
