Drew Edwards Persevering, Emerging for PC

Through 15 games this season, Drew Edwards had been a forgotten man. The redshirt junior out of Maryland barely saw the floor for a crowded, yet inconsistent, backcourt until a 19 point, five rebound, three assist, three steal outburst in a double overtime loss to Georgetown on Jan. 12.

The Georgetown defeat was Providence’s 16th game of the season, and it also marked the first one in which Edwards had a made field goal. He played spot minutes for the most part, with a trio of DNP-CDs mixed in with games in which he saw five or fewer minutes through the season’s first two months.
