Christopher Newport's Jason Aigner led the 18th-Ranked Captains to victories over Southern Virginia and Penn State-Harrisburg by scoring 13 and 17 points in the two triumphs. Aigner was 5-for-7 vs. the Lions Saturday, all from behind the three-point line. CNU has now won four straight games...York's Jason Bady had another fantastic individual week for the Spartans. He opened the week with a career-high 35 points in the Spartans' road win at #24 Salisbury on Wednesday. Bady went 11-for-15 from the floor and 12-for-13 from the free throw line in his career night. He also had nine rebounds, three blocked shots and two steals in the win over the Sea Gulls.

For the week, Bady averaged 23 points, 8.0 rebounds, 1.5 blocked shots, and 1.0 steals per game. He shot 66.7% from the floor, 33.3% from three and 89.5% from the free throw line. For the season, Bady is third in the league in scoring, sixth in field goal percentage, fourth in free throw percentage, fourth in rebounding, and fourth in blocked shots per game.

In the first game of the week, Davis scored 13 points to go with three rebounds and four assists against York. Against Frostburg St., he put up a team-high 21 points, with eight rebounds. In the second half, when Salisbury was trailing by double figures, he led the comeback charge driving to the basket and hitting layups and getting to the free throw line, getting the deficit to one possession, but the Sea Gulls were unable to draw even...St. Mary's Matt Ayoub averaged 16.5 points per game and shot 42.1 percent from three to lead St. Mary's College of Maryland to a 1-1 record this week.
