Game Notes
Last time out: The hot-shooting Rangers shot 52 percent from the floor and were powered by 16 points by junior
Luke Glass. The Rangers broke the game open in the second half, rattling off a 13-2 run in the opening minutes of the frame and not allowing Goucher to regain the lead for the remainder of the game.
Series Split: The Rangers and Gophers have split the season series every year since joining the Landmark Conference prior to the 2007-08 season. Goucher's last win in Baldwin Gym came on February 13, 2010 in a 55-42 low-scoring battle.
Breaking & Entering: Luke Glass entered the record books by breaking the school mark for steals in Wednesday's overtime loss to Scranton. The junior came up with a total of seven steals eclipsing the previous mark of six accomplished by Chris Lopez three times and former teammate
Terrell Brown once.
Last Man Standing: The loser of today's game will be officially eliminated from playoff contention. As it sits right now both teams are alive but need to win out plus at least two losses by Susquehanna, Moravian and/or Merchant Marine.
