That got my curiosity up to compare numbers from last year and see who improved and picked up the slack.
Big steps forward by these players - congrats!

Jarius Cook - redshirted last season - now a RSoph - big jump in his numbers also from his true freshman season
imo the Coyotes did the Bison a favor by throwing both a trapping press and Zone D’s at them. Hopefully the lessons are learned and success can be had at the Summit League Tournament. NDSU certainly has the shooters to take advantage of the holes in a Zone D...... See Eady & MHH especially.
