Fellow senior C.J. Reed also set a new career high with 11 assists in the win. He surpassed the 500 career assist threshold on Saturday afternoon and enters Thursday’s game with 507 career assists. Reed has 1,900 career points and needs to average 10.0 points per game over the final 10 regular season games to reach the 2,000 career points mark.

The Paladins enter Thursday’s game well rested with a week off leading up to the contest. Last time out, the Paladins fell to Wofford 64-50 behind 14 points from Stephen Croone. Senior Colin Reddick leads the Terriers with 12.1 ppg and 6.1 rpg.

Georgia Southern returns home on Saturday to open a three-game homestand with a doubleheader at Hanner Fieldhouse.
