The South Florida Bulls Men’s Basketball team made it clear they meant business tonight following Monday’s loss to Western Michigan with an 82-63 rout of the Bradley Braves. I do want to mention the Bulls are coming off 4 games in 5 days, so this Turkey Day break will help the team recharge for Monday’s matchup against Stetson in Deland. Tough environment, they will be jacked up. I do want to mention we hit 5k in attendance at the newly renovated Sun Dome tonight. See? Only Football in negative..
Vic Rudd had a monster game tonight. Rudd finished with 15 points, 12 rebounds (career high), 2 assists, & went 6/6 from the Line. Rudd’s double-double is a great sign of what fans can expect down the stretch.
Stats.
- Fitz: 16 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 2/2 from the Line & 4/7 from beyond the arc. Beast mode.
- Noreiga: 14 points, 4 assists, & 2/4 from three-land.
- White: 11 points, 4 rebounds, a steal, went 2/2 from the Line, 4/4 from the field & 1/1 from downtown. That’s impressive.
- Jordan Omogbehin: Or better known as ‘OMG’ , in case you don’t know about our 7’3 Center, finished with 6 points & 6 rebounds tonight. OMG’s inside presence will be crucial against in-conference opponents & down the stretch.
**Notes: Jawanza Poland has continued to struggle & after suffering an ankle injury Martino Brock left the game.
Anthony Collins. AC crushed the Braves tonight, finishing with 8 points, 10 assists, 2 rebounds, 4 steals & 4/4 from the Line. Not to mention the half-court alley-oop to Victor Rudd for a backdoor jam that made the Dome erupt! AC is the best thing in recent years to happen to USF Athletics. It’s early, but kudos to Heath & the crew.
