Rutgers-Camden Athletics

During a week that featured 40-point performances in both men’s and women’s basketball, it was Rutgers-Camden freshman guard/forward Jalissa Pitts who was the most consistent standout on the court for the Scarlet Raptors. Pitts averaged a double-double of 19 points and 10 rebounds as the women’s basketball team posted a 1-1 record in New Jersey Athletic Conference play. In a loss at Stockton University Wednesday, Pitts collected her second career double-double with a game-high 19 points, while tying for game-high honors with 11 rebounds. In a big win at Kean University Saturday, Pitts had another 19-point performance, while barely missing her second double-double of the week. She finished with nine rebounds, two assists and two steals. For the season, Pitts has played in all 20 games for the Scarlet Raptors, starting 19. She leads the team in rebounding with a 7.3 average and is second on the Raptors with an 11.6 scoring average.
