FDU Knights Athletics

Erika Livermore led all NEC rookies in both scoring and rebounding over two weeks’ worth of games that spanned from Dec. 19 through Jan. 1.  The 6-foot-1 freshman averaged 15.7 points and 9.3 rebounds per contest during a three-game sample that featured a 20-point thrashing of Columbia and a one-point, last-minute loss to fellow Garden State inhabitant Rider.  Livermore went 20-for-32 shooting over her last three games and her .625 field goal percentage was tops amongst all NEC players who attempted at least 10 shots during the span.  Fairleigh Dickinson’s freshman center scored in double digits in all three of the Knights’ games with her best day yet coming against Columbia.  Livermore poured in 24 points, on 10-for-13 shooting, and pulled 

down 15 rebounds in the 71-51 triumph over the Ivy League member on Dec. 28 in Hackensack.  She scored 11 points and corralled six caroms in a 69-68 setback at Rider on Dec. 22.  The Pennsylvania product closed out the 2011 calendar year by tallying 12 points and seven boards in a loss to Howard on Dec. 30
