Senior Vince Roberts, of the men's basketball team, was named CCNY's Male Athlete of the Week from the period of Monday, January 10th, through Sunday, January 16th.
Despite the fact that the Beavers went 0-2 this week, the Baldwin, NY native put forth a tremendous effort this week. In CCNY's 79-56 loss to the Bloodhounds of John Jay College this past Wednesday evening, Roberts posted team-highs with 12 points (5-12 FG) and 10 rebounds. Then, in a 73-68 Beaver defeat at the hands of the Bears of St. Joseph's College of Brooklyn, he was it again, scoring 14 points and snatching eight rebounds despite the loss.
For the season, Roberts is averaging 9.1 points per game (third best on the team) and 5.1 rebounds per contest (second highest on the squad). His field goal percentage is very encouraging, as he has connected on 48.2 percent of his attempts from the field this season (54-112).
