On Saturday, February 12th, the Creighton Bluejays handily defeated the Georgetown Hoyas, 80-66. The shorthanded Jays, without starter Arthur Kaluma, managed to steal a game away from home with the heroics of Ryan Hawkins and Ryan Kalkbrenner, while also holding a good three-point shooting team in Georgetown to just 25% from beyond the arc.
When Creighton needed production from their remaining players after having lost Kaluma, Hawkins and Kalkbrenner delivered. Hawkins set a season-high with 30 points on 10-21 shooting (8-18 from three) as well as 12 rebounds. Kalkbrenner was also tremendous, setting a career-high in points (22), rebounds (15), made field goals (10), and field goal attempts (16).
