Brielle Rigo had an impressive week for Immaculata last week as the junior accounted for 28 points over the course of two games while also coming away with 36 rebounds including 26 on the defensive end of the floor. On Monday evening in the Macs first game since December 21^st, Rigo played well registering 18 rebounds including 12 on the defensive glass while also coming away with five assists and eight points to lead Immaculata to the victory over Penn State-Brandywine to wrap up non-conference play. On Wednesday evening in the Macs Atlantic East opener, Rigo was exceptional as she recorded 18 rebounds with 14 of those boards coming on the defensive glass to once again to tie her career-high for rebounding before setting a new career-high in scoring with 20 points thanks to an impressive 9-of-11 shooting performance from the field. For the week, Rigo averaged 14 points and 18 rebounds per game to lead Immaculata to a pair of victories, thus, extending the winning streak to three in a row and improving the Macs to 1-0 in Atlantic East play. This is the first time since the 2014-15 season that both the Immaculata men’s and women’s basketball teams began the season with perfect 1-0 records.
