WHO WAS THE MOST VALUABLE PLAYER OF THIS CONTEST?
The answer to this question has to be Jordan Hairston, who caught fire, scoring 27 points on 6 of 10 from three and handing out 5 dimes to go along with 4 steals and 3 turnovers. Lehigh Head Coach Brett Reed offered Hairston a scholarship after his performance. Since he is planning to take a prep year, it looks like the offer will be as a 2020 prospect.
WHO IS JOHN LOUGHLIN?
John Loughlin, a freshman who is listed at 5’11, is very good spot up shooter. Loughlin came in off the bench and knocked down three triples to help his team stay close.
HOW GOOD IS TYMU CHENERY?
Tymu Chenery is off to a very good start this season from what we’ve seen so far, and tonight his effort on defense was good, but it also helped that he hit all 7 of his three-point attempts on his way to a game-high 28 points. Chenery took a charge, blocked 2 shots, and hauled in 9 rebounds. When you consider his size, skill set, and athleticism, he looks like a very solid mid major division one prospect with upside.
WHO WAS THE X-FACTOR OF THIS GAME?
It has to be Justice Ellison. Defensively, he was an absolute pest, but he also contributed offensively. Ellison recorded 12 points on 5 of 8 shooting to go along with 4 rebounds, and 7 assists. If there was room an honorable mention here, it’s only right to shout out Dowar Jioklow for his efforts. Jioklow Chipped in with 15 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, and 1 block.
WHEN WILL QUDUS WAHAB COMMIT?
Initial reports were that Qudus Wahab would make his decision today, but as of now there’s no set timetable. Georgetown has been monitoring him closely, but will he pick the Hoyas? Only time will tell.
