Rutgers-Camden Athletics

Freshman forward Cameron Downs earns honors as Rutgers-Camden’s Raptor of the Week for the second consecutive week and the third time this season after leading the men’s basketball team to its first conference victory of the year with an 80-55 win over William Paterson University Saturday. Downs scored a game-high 24 points, shooting 6-for-8 from the floor (2-for-2 from three-point range) and 10-for-14 from the foul line. Earlier in the week he scored 21 points in a loss against New Jersey City University. While averaging 22.5 points for the week, he also averaged 4.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.0 steals. The performance notched him his second weekly honor as the New Jersey Athletic Conference Rookie of the Week in addition to his third Raptor of the Week this season.
