RSU women's basketball player Candice Stewart has been named the athlete of the week.

One of three Division 1 transfers for the Hillcats in 2009-10, Stewart joined RSU by way of Delaware State University. She helped DSU to a second place conference finish by averaging five points and three rebounds in 22 minutes of playing time per game in 2008-09.
