Both Men's and Women's basketball teams have been experiencing losing streaks in this second season in the NCAA Division 1 regular season playoffs.....
However this is one piece of good news:
Jessica Gerald, a freshmen guard, has been named the national
NCAA Division I Independent women's basketball Newcomer of the Week.
Jessica Gerald combined for 13 points while shooting 6-for-11 from the field in 22 minutes of action off the bench last week in a 67-63 loss to
Long Island.
Jessica is the second Highlanders to get this award this year. Earlier on few weeks ago,
Adriana Johnson, also bagged the same award. See

Despite the losing streaks, both the NJIT Men's and Women's basketball teams have shown great progress this season by losing to strong Division 1 opponents by 10 points or less recently....this are signs that we should be seeing some wins in the near future.
Go Highlanders go.....show them you really belong to Division 1

.... your fans are waiting to see the elusive winning performance.....
