What to Know
After two games on the road, George Wash. is heading back home. They will welcome the Army Black Knights at 7:00 p.m. ET on Friday at Charles E. Smith Center. The Revolutionaries are strutting in with some offensive muscle as they’ve averaged 77.9 points per game this season.
Last Saturday, George Wash. was able to grind out a solid victory over Old Dominion, taking the game 78-70. The over/under was set at 147.5 points, so nice work oddsmakers; you were right on the money.
Sean Hansen and Christian Jones were among the main playmakers for George Wash. as the former scored ten points in addition to seven rebounds and two steals and the latter went 7 for 8 en route to 17 points. Jones is trending in the right direction considering he’s improved his point production for four straight games.
Meanwhile, Army entered their match against Cornell on Sunday without any home losses, but there’s a first time for everything. Army suffered a grim 103-84 loss to Cornell. Having run the score up that high, both teams probably have some extra defensive drills coming up.
Even though the team lost, they still had their share of impressive performances. One of the best came from Jalen Rucker, who posted 17 points plus two steals. AJ Allenspach was another key player, dropping a double-double on 12 points and 11 rebounds.
George Wash.’s win ended a nine-game drought on the road dating back to last season…
