The dominant performance also gave him a new career-high in offensive rebounds (three). Another player making a difference was Cole Hargrove, who scored 13 points along with six rebounds and three blocks.
Even though they lost, Drexel smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 23 offensive rebounds. That's the most offensive rebounds they've managed all season.
