RICHMOND, Va. – College of Charleston's Grant Riller (Ocoee, Fla.) was named Colonial Athletic Association Co-Rookie of the Week as announced by the conference office on Monday.
Â
Riller came off the bench and scored 21 points in just 24 minutes of action as the Cougars defeated crosstown rival The Citadel, 81-68, in the team's season opener on Nov. 11 at TD Arena.
Â
The redshirt freshman guard, who missed all of last season due to a preseason ACL injury, hit 6-of-9 from the floor and was a perfect 9-for-9 at the free throw line in his collegiate debut. Riller also added three rebounds and two steals in the win. He shared the weekly honor with Eli Pemberton of Hofstra.
