In the Bucknell game Justin Gorham scored 21 pts (10-12 FG) with 10 RB along with preseason all-CAA Mike Morsell (6-13 FG, 8-9 FT). Despite a high scoring game (93-86); TU only had 11 assists in 34 made baskets and was only 3-14 on 3-pointers. Thomas Alex had 12 pts (5-6 FG) in 17 mins off bench and will likely play more vs Stith/Porter (possible start). Deshaun Morman (6-3 190 Sr) was all-defense CAA in 2016-17 although he DNP vs Bucknell.
