DaQuan Bracey led all scorers with 24 points, while also dishing out eight assists. Since Exavian Christon was put on the shelf indefinitely with a medical issue on December 1st, Bracey has stepped to the forefront and is averaging 19.5 points per game along with 5.5 assists.

With Derric Jean now also out indefinitely with a lower leg injury, Jacolby Pemberton was given the chance to make his second start of the season against MVSU. The sophomore wing did not disappoint, scoring 13 points and pulling down 13 rebounds in a season-high 34 minutes.

Looking at the Cajuns, Bob Marlin’s squad comes in battle tested having already played #6 Tennessee and #1 Kansas.
