OPENING WEEK UNBEATEN
William & Mary moved to 2-0 after cruising past Norfolk State, 104-73, marking the Tribe’s highest scoring total against a Division I opponent since putting up 114 against Charleston on Feb. 24, 2018. W&M saw 69 of its points come from its reserves, led by Stas Sivka with 17 points and six boards. Will Feagles and Gavin Ward also chipped in 14 and 12 points apiece, respectively.
 
After earning an 84-71 wire-to-wire win over Columbia on opening night, Elon picked up a 74-65 victory over UNCG on Friday. Joshua Dalton produced 17.5 points and 5.5 rebounds per contest, while Bryson Cokley (12.0 ppg) and Hunter Harding (11.5 ppg) are averaging double figures entering week two.
 
UNCW edged East Carolina, 78-75, on the road on Saturday. Patrick Wessler unloaded 24 points on 8-of-11 shooting from the floor and 8-for-12 from the charity stripe. He also pulled down six of his career-high 18 rebounds on the offensive glass, the third-most in a single game across Division I last week. CJ Luster also chipped in 21 points with five of his six makes coming from distance.
 
Charleston averaged 111.5 points per game in wins over Newberry and Southern Wesleyan, good for fifth in the nation. The Cougars are also shooting at a 57.5% clip from the floor to sit ninth in the nation.
 
TUESDAY NIGHT PREVIEW
Hofstra heads west to close out the night with first-time opponent Arizona State at 9 p.m. ET. The Pride took down a pair of Power Five conference teams last season, downing Pittsburgh, 80-73, and Syracuse, 70-69.
 
Northeastern starts its week with the first of two Ivy League programs, hosting Harvard in a 7 p.m. showdown on FloCollege. The Huskies hold a 42-20 advantage in the all-time series, winning the last two meetings and four of the
last five in Boston. Since the 2014-15 season, Northeastern is 31-10 at home against non-conference opponents. Rashad King is 21 points away from becoming the 43rd player in program history to reach the 1,000-point plateau.
 
Elon will look to start the season 3-0 for the first time since the 2020-21 season when it heads to George Washington for a 7 p.m. contest. The Phoenix will look to secure its first win in the series since the 1930-31 season. Elon’s starting frontcourt of Josh Dalton and Hunter Harding is averaging a combined 29.0 points and 12.5 rebounds while shooting 62.2% (23 of 37) through two games.

DEFENDING NCAA CHAMPS ON TAP
William & Mary will close out the second week of action against defending NCAA Champion Michigan on Sunday. The Tribe will face the Wolverines for the first time in program history.
