With the temperatures dropping below freezing in the Queen City, senior Joseph Uchebo heated things up in Halton Arena Thursday, Jan. 21.
Uchebo finished the night with 21 rebounds and 24 points. This was the first game in which a player registered over 20 points and 20 rebounds since Curtis Withers did it against Dayton in 2006. Uchebo was four rebounds away from setting a new school record for rebounds in a single game.
The 21 rebounds tallied Thursday night brings Uchebo three shy of leading Conference USA in rebounds. He does, however, lead the conference in offensive rebounds with 77.
