25 points, 20 boards, and 9 swats in Saturday’s win over Seton Hall. Though Connecticut could be in trouble further down the road (actually as soon as Monday vs. Pitt) with Jerome Dyson out for the season. A.J.

Losing Dyson is bigger than pundits seem to be leading on.

Last season’s leading scorer was Charron Fisher of Niagra. He averaged 27.8 ppg, just beating out VMI’s Reggie Williams (27.7).
Rounding out the top five was Michael Beasley, Lester Hudson (Tennessee-Martin) and Stephen Curry.
