Here are our new rankings after the rout of GW:
RPI: #69
Sagarin : #42
Kenpom/Pomeroy: #50
It is annoying that our rankings keep coming down even after wins, but I guess the ratings systems don't really give much credit for wins over St. Bonaventure and George Washington. A win over UMass on Wednesday night would give a huge boost to our rankings and to our NCAA hopes which seem to be back on the rise after a couple of conference wins.
- The Dukes are now 13-5 and the 13 wins are the most a Duquesne team has had since the 1993-94 NIT team.
- The Dukes have won 6 in a row at the AJ Palumbo Center
- Shawn James had 5 blocks last night. With his second block - at the 5:46 mark of the first half - James became the 18th player in NCAA Division I history to post 400 career blocked shots. The 6-10 junior entered the game ranked fifth nationally in blocks per game at 4.1. He now has 403 blocked shots in 72 career games.
