In the first game of his Chippewa career, Rob Montgomery got the start for the Central Michigan men’s basketball team in the season opener.

Head coach Keno Davis praised his athletic ability to get to the ball and block shots in the preseason. It soon became evident as to why.

At the 11:34 mark in the first half against Concordia, Montgomery came out of nowhere in the lane to swat away an attempted layup. Minutes later he found another block and the crowd was starting to feed off his energy.

Then in the second half, things didn’t exactly go his way.
