Campellone Earns First GNAC Corvias Weekly Award of Career

BOSTON – Senior Chelsea Campellone has been named the GNAC Corvias Player of the Week after averaging 27.0 ppg, and 15.0 rpg in a 2-1 week for the Rams.

This is the first GNAC weekly award of Campellone's career and second for the Rams this season. Campellone has previously been named to the league's honor roll three times this season. Freshman Marissa Gudauskas was named GNAC Corvias Player of the Week Nov. 16.

Campellone set a new career high in Tuesday's 74-66 win over Clark, netting 24 points, shooting 9-of-20 from the floor, 6-of-6 at the line and grabbed 13 boards. The 5-foot-7 forward upstaged her career-best Saturday afternoon with 30 points on a 9-of-17 performance from the field, 12-of-14 showing at the line and pulled down 15 rebounds to help Suffolk comeback to a 65-49 triumph over Boston rival Wentworth. Campellone is the first player to put in 30 points since Jennifer Ruys '14 scored 31 at Rivier January 31, 2013, while her 17 rebounds are the most for a Ram since Tori Brillaud '15 grabbed 18 against Johnson & Wales February 5, 2013.

Campellone shot 48.6 percent from the floor for the week and an impressive 90 percent at the line. The senior leads the team with 14.0 ppg and 10.3 rpg this season and has notched four double-doubles to help Suffolk to a 6-3 ledger.

Campellone and the Rams return to action tonight as they host Springfield in their 2015 finale at 6 p.m.
