Samardzija Wins Seventh NEC Rookie of the Week Award

BRIDGEWATER, N.J.- Mila Samardzija has taken home another NEC/Molten Rookie of the Week award. This award marks her seventh time winning this season, the most of any player in the NEC. The Knights are coming off a two-win weekend where FDU also punched their ticket to the NEC Championships on Friday night.

The outside hitter played in all six sets in FDU's two matches versus New Haven, totaling 20 kills, 17 digs, and 10 combined blocks. She also dealt a season-best two assists in Saturday's match.

Samardzija is joined as a prime performer this week by Madeline Joyce and Anglea Marchetto. The Knights return on Nov. 13 at Le Moyne, as they compete in their final weekend of the regular season
