More on MCW's Amazing Achievements

[orange2win]

The "listing of season leaders" annually records the top performer in Pts, Blocks, RBs etc. and extends back to the 1940's and 50's. Surprisingly no SU player has ever made any of these lists. MCW is more than two points ahead of his closest challenger with about one third of the season gone. Looks like he could be our first entry.

Even more amazing, if MCW is able to hold his current APG of 10.7 per game through the remainder of the season, that would put him in second place in the all-time season assist leaders, well ahead of prior illustrious winners like Mark Jackson and Jason Kidd. First place is now held by Avery Johnson who in 1987-88 averaged a staggering 13.3 APG. That however was in the Southern League against the likes of Citadel, Elon and Furman. Not quite Georgetown, UConn and Pitt.

Last week during the broadcast, Doris Burke commented that MCW would have his work cut out to beat the Sherman Douglas SU assist record of 22 in one game (1/28/89), but how many of you, including Doris, are aware that in the Monmouth game, MCW scored 15 assists in the 2nd half alone. That rate of assist production is already the best in SU history.

MCW is a special BB player. But, let's wait until he plays against some tougher competition than Monmouth before we worry about how many records he might break.

It's also worth remembering that the General's 22 assists came against a good Providence team.

so similar to what MCW has faced so far this season?

True, but the two guys behind MCW face tougher competition in conference play as well. DeAndre Kane, who is right behind, plays against Kentucky today. A little tougher than Temple.

I'm guessing MCW averages around 7.5 assists in BE play. Still phenomenal.
