You made 21 out of 23 in the last 10 minutes. You were led by Harper with 24 and Demir with 21. Harper made 14 out of 16 free throws. The CAA record for free throws made by a player is 21, and last season's CAA-high was 16. All 6 of your players who attempted free throws made at least 2 and made at least 75%. To compare that to the 76ers, they had at least 34 made, at least 85% made, at least 6 players who made at least 2, and had every player make at least 75% 14 days ago, but the previous time when they did all of those was 744 games before that. Demir had half of your 10 assists, and his 5 assists tied his career-high. ESPN calls him a junior, but doesn't have any statistics for him before last season. La Salle shot well, but it's hard to win when you make 25 fewer free throws. They made 9 out of 12 free throws.

Thanks Evan for the analysis. It was a very impressive win today. La Salle was all about the outside shot today, making 11 of 24 3-pointers. Drexel focused on the inside game, as La Salle couldn't stop Dehmir. Drexel got to the line quite a bit and really took advantage with very impressive free throw shooting. They made just 26 FG's today but made 34 FT's.

This is now the 3rd time in 4 years that Drexel has beaten La Salle, and all 3 wins were at Tom Gola Arena.
