Dayjaun Anderson was straight up unstoppable Wednesday night, dropping a massive 24 points to lead UL Monroe to a dominant 99-55 victory over Champion Christian. Talk about making a statement!
Monroe’s Attack Was Relentless
Anderson wasn’t just scoring, either, hitting 9 of 16 shots from the field, including 4 big threes out of 10 attempts for the Warhawks. This win pushes UL Monroe’s early season record to 1-1. But Anderson wasn’t alone in lighting it up, though! Quaran McPherson added 13 points, shooting a clean 4 of 9 from the floor and an absolutely perfect 4 for 4 from the free throw line. McPherson also snatched 6 crucial rebounds, showing he’s a force on both ends.
The Supporting Cast Stepped Up
Robert Cowherd got in on the action too, draining 10 points on 3 of 6 shooting, including 2 of 5 from downtown, and snagging an impressive four steals. When you have multiple guys hitting double-digits and playing stout defense, that’s how you get a blowout like this. For Champion Christian, Braylon Frazier tried to keep them in it with 12 points, and Gaius Mervin chipped in 11, but it just wasn’t enough against Monroe’s offensive explosion.
Next up for UL Monroe is a road trip on Monday to face Texas A&M. Can they keep this momentum rolling after such a huge win? You know we’ll be watching!
