“We were all on the bench screaming, ‘Get Desi the ball!'”
Nothing like a near-career-high 25 points, including five three-pointers, to lead your team to a 87-56 victory over DePaul on a snowy Saturday afternoon.
“I was feeling it,” Desi Rodriguez said. “I saw the first two go in, when I got a little dunk on the break, so everything started to come together. It was a bit of a sluggish day, so I had to pick it up on the offensive end.”
While mostly quiet in the second half, the talk of the first half was all Rodriguez, as he started the game on a personal 10-0 run and put up 23 points on the half.
