Jyi Dawkins absolutely went off for 23 points, leading Wofford to a crushing 100-67 victory over Allen on Sunday. The Terriers were just relentless, picking up their first win of the season after starting 0-2.
Wofford’s Offense Was Just Too Much
Dawkins wasn’t just scoring either, he added nine rebounds to his monster stat line. It felt like he was everywhere on the court, making plays and setting the tone. But he wasn’t alone in lighting up the scoreboard. Chris Arias chipped in with 13 points, grabbed eight boards, and dished out five assists, showing off that all-around game. Then you had Jhett Carter, who drained three shots from beyond the arc on his way to 13 points himself. Wofford just kept pouring it on, hitting triple digits and making it look easy. They definitely cruised, like the score says, and when you put up 100 points, you’ve earned that ‘cruised’ title.
Allen Couldn’t Keep Up, Despite Individual Efforts
On Allen’s side, Christopher McKnight tried his best to keep them in it, leading the Yellow Jackets with 22 points and snagging three steals. He was hustling, for sure. Thomas Glanton also added 11 points and four steals, showing some good defensive energy. But even with those solid individual performances, Wofford’s firepower was just too much to handle. The score pretty much tells the whole story: Allen simply couldn’t find a way to slow down the Terriers’ attack.
This win brings Wofford to 1-2 on the young season. You gotta think this kind of dominant performance, especially hitting that 100-point mark, is exactly what they needed to get some momentum. Keep an eye on Dawkins, that dude looks like he’s ready to explode this year.
