November Performances of the Month
Written by Elon Phoenix on 4:45 PM
We’ve decided to come up with a new feature here on the From the Ashes blog. Each month we will take a look back at some of the most outstanding individual performances by our athletes and then post a poll on the blog site for you, our loyal fans, to vote on. Feel free to comment as well!
We’ll get this started by looking back at the month of November and what our staff has looked at as the top five individual performances of the month:
1. Scott Riddle (FB) vs. Western Carolina – Riddle threw for 452 yards and five touchdowns, completing 25 of his 37 pass attempts in Elon’s 45-14 victory. The performance helped him claim the final SoCon Offensive Player of the Week honor of the season.
2. Sarah Schermerhorn (VB) vs. Appalachian State – Schermerhorn helped Elon clinch a share of its first-ever SoCon North Division title by posting 11 kills, four digs and nine blocks in a 3-0 win over the Mountaineers. Coupled with her performance against Western Carolina the next day, Schermerhorn picked up SoCon Defensive Player of the Week distinction.
3. Kelsey Evans (WBB) vs. Fordham – Evans helped the Phoenix to a 91-77 win in the season-opener by recording a double-double of 13 points and 13 rebounds. She added an assist, a block and a steal while shooting 55.6 percent from the field. After Elon defeated Troy two days later, Evans was honored as the MVP of the Phoenix Classic.
4. Jack Isenbarger (MBB) at South Carolina – In his first collegiate game, Isenbarger went for 22 points on 7-of-11 (63.6 percent) shooting from the field. The freshman connected on 50 percent of his three-point attempts (3-of-6) and was perfect at the free throw line (5-of-5) while also grabbing three rebounds and dishing out two assists.
5. Gabe Latigue (MSOC) vs. Radford – In the final game of the regular season, Latigue scored two of Elon’s three goals, including the game-winner, to help the Phoenix to a 3-1 victory.
