Stockton University’s men’s and women’s basketball programs showcased resilience, growth, and historic individual performances during a busy winter stretch that spanned non-conference play and key NJAC matchups. Both squads leaned on dominant rebounding, emerging freshmen, and milestone moments as they navigated competitive December and January schedules.

Women’s Basketball

The Ospreys’ women’s team was anchored by a remarkable stretch from freshman Zemirah Enalls, who established herself as one of the top rebounders in the conference. Enalls posted multiple historic performances, including a career-high 21 rebounds against Rutgers-Camden — the most by any NJAC player this season and tied for the second-highest single-game total in program history. She added a career-high 19 rebounds at Christopher Newport, recorded her first career three-pointer, and logged five double-doubles during the span, three of which included 19 or more rebounds.

Fellow freshman Bre Evans continued her strong debut campaign, highlighted by a career-high 19 points in a conference win over Rowan. Evans also led Stockton in scoring in multiple contests, underscoring her growing offensive role.

Imene Fathi delivered one of the program’s milestone moments of the season, becoming just the seventh player in Stockton women’s basketball history to reach 100 career three-pointers. Fathi matched the achievement with a season-high 20 points on a perfect 4-for-4 shooting from beyond the arc in a decisive win over Rutgers-Camden.

Additional notable performances included:

Riley Fitzpatrick posted a career-high 14 points at Virginia Wesleyan.

Grace Speer recorded a season-high 16 points at Montclair State and a season-high four blocks against Kean.

ChiChi Wokocha pulled down a season-high 12 rebounds versus Kean.

Men’s Basketball

Stockton’s men’s team delivered a highly efficient offensive stretch, scoring 100 or more points three times, including a season-high 107 against Rowan. The Ospreys shot better than 60 percent from the floor in multiple contests while establishing new season bests in three-point shooting.

Senior Tayvon Gaither reached a major career milestone, becoming the 34th player in program history to surpass 1,000 career points during a road win at Ramapo. Gaither also led the team in scoring on several occasions, including a 21-point effort against Rowan.

Justin Harper enjoyed a dominant midseason surge, recording:

Career highs of 19 points and 13 rebounds in an overtime win over Albright– and a later new career-high 25 points in a rout of Widener. He also contributed 20 or more points in five games in a nine-game stretch. Harper’s performance at Albright earned him a spot on the Holiday Tournament All-Tournament Team.

Charlie Bell delivered one of the most dramatic moments of the winter, sinking a game-tying buzzer-beater at Albright to force overtime. Bell also set career highs of 15 and 17 points in separate contests and pulled down a career- and game-high 10 rebounds versus Rutgers-Camden.

Andrew Crawford was instrumental in Stockton’s offensive efficiency, setting career highs of seven and eight assists in different games, including an eight-assist, zero-turnover performance against Rowan. Freshman Alex Fessel added a career-high nine points in the same contest.

Defensively and on the boards, the Ospreys made a statement by outrebounding No. 10 Montclair State 43-29, leading for more than 34 minutes in a narrow road loss, and by hitting a season-high 16 three-pointers in a conference win over Kean.

Across both programs, Stockton basketball’s winter stretch was defined by historic individual achievements, emerging underclassmen, and balanced team contributions. With conference play intensifying the Ospreys have positioned themselves as disciplined, physical teams capable of controlling tempo, and delivering in pivotal moments.
