Three highlight reels for a three-game winning streak! First up, another hot shooting performance in Carbondale in an 81-51 victory over SIU. It was their fifth straight win at SIU Arena, and tenth straight win over the Salukis overall. After two sluggish performances against Wichita State and Drake, Jahenns Manigat and Ethan Wragge found their shooting strokes again.
Next, last Wednesday’s victory over Missouri State. After 15 days between home games, the Jays were back to be home, and it showed as they hung 91 points on the Bears. Austin Chatman recorded his first career double-double, and once again proved that it’s exceedingly difficult to guard the Bluejays when their two best forwards go 10-13 from behind the arc in a game.
And finally, Saturday’s “Creighton vs Cancer” Pink-Out game, a 75-58 win over Bradley.
