Nivar wins seventh Rookie of the Week award

BUIES CREEK, N.C. – For the seventh time this season, Campbell freshman Jasmine Nivar was selected as the CAA Rookie of the Week, announced by the conference Monday afternoon.
 
She moves into third in CAA history for most rookie of the week awards. Kiki Jefferson won in nine times in the 2019-20 season, and Elena Delle Donne earned the award 10 times in the 2009-10 season.
 
Nivar's steal and fastbreak layup with 19 seconds to go on Sunday put the Camels ahead for good in their 59-57 win over Charleston on Sunday. She also knocked down a three pointer with 2:30 to play amid a 13-5 Campbell run.
 
The freshman from Apex ended the game with eight points, six rebounds, 1 block, 1 steal and a career-high tying five assists.
 
Earlier in the week against Towson, Nivar scored 11 points for her 18th game in double figures this season. She added three rebounds, three assists, one block and four steals to her stat line.
 
Nivar is one of four players in the NCAA to win her conference's rookie of the week award seven times. She is joined by Aaliyah Chavez of Oklahoma, Blanca Quiñonez of UCONN and Syracuse's Uche Izoje.
