Sophomore Ryan Rossiter had a great game against second place Niagara and he was honored today by being named Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Player of the Week for the first time in his career.

Rossiter shot 7-for-7 from the field, scored 18 points, grabbed 12 rebounds, blocked five shots, dished out three assists and made two steals.

The five blocks were the most in a game by a Siena player in over eight years and the double-double was the third of Rossiter's career.

The 6-foot-9 forward is the fourth Siena player, joining Kenny Hasbrouck, Edwin Ubiles and Ronald Moore to win the honor this season.

Rossiter and the Saints look to go to 10-0 in the MAAC, in less than 90 minutes, against Iona.
