VESTAL, N.Y. – Redshirt freshman guard Jadyn Weltz has been named the America East Rookie of the Week. It marks the second time this season that she has earned the conference's weekly accolade.

Weltz averaged 8.0 points, 6.5 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 4.0 steals in a pair of games against the two top teams in the America East this past week. Against first-place Albany, she finished with five points, three rebounds, five assists and a career-high six steals. Three days later, Weltz recorded her first career double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds against Maine. She also added three assists and a pair of steals.

For the season, Weltz is tied for first in the conference with 2.1 steals per game and is second with 3.9 assists per contest.

This marks the second straight week that Binghamton has landed the America East Rookie of the Week. Fellow redshirt guard Ella Wanzer was chosen last week.

Between Weltz and Wanzer, the Bearcats have posted the America East Rookie of the Week five times this season. Weltz was also selected back on Nov. 14 while Wanzer was also the choice on Nov. 21 and Dec. 5.

Binghamton (10-10, 3-4 AE) travels to Vermont on Wednesday for a 6 p.m. game.
