She shot 18-for-19 (95%) from the free-throw line and 46% from 3-point range. Dellinger poured in 39 points against Rose-Hulman on Tuesday, which is the second-highest single-game total in program history, including seven 3-pointers. On Sunday, Dellinger scored 23 points with 13 rebounds, and six assists as Anderson upset Hanover in the first round of the HCAC tournament.

Mike Jackson

Jackson won NJAC Rookie of the Week for an incredible performance in Montclair's final regular season game, taking conference second seed, Rowan, to overtime on the road, before just falling short.  The freshman, Jackson, scored 42 points on 60% shooting, hitting an unbelievable 10-of-15 from behind the arc and bringing down seven rebounds. He single-handed willed his team to overtime in a heroic finish.

Matthew Schner

Grunder followed that effort with 37 points and seven boards in a 103-90 home win over Buffalo State on Friday, and on Saturday, with Cortland needing to win to make the playoffs, he scored 34 points and grabbed 10 rebounds in a 74-66 win over Geneseo.
