DWU Point Guard's Fill Void

With Colby Fitzgerald out for the season someone is going to have to step up to account for his 18 point average. It didn't take long to figure out where exactly those points might come from. Mitch Bain and Rocky Nelson combined to score 31 points from the point guard position. Ironically 18 more than their season average. Rocky played his best game as a Tiger and Mitch had his best shooting game of the season.

A few times during the game Coach Hemenway played Rocky at point and moved Mitch over to shooting guard, which surprisingly is his natural position. He proved this to be true as he stepped up and was the go-to-man when the team needed a big shot.

Sunday was the type of team effort the Tigers are going to need down the stretch run and if Rocky can play like he did Sunday it will pay dividends for the them down the road.
