Edwards shot 8 of 13 from the field, including 5 for 8 from 3-point range, and went 4 for 7 from the line for the Friars (11-13, 4-9 Big East Conference). Jaylin Sellers, coming off a career-high 36 points, scored 21 points and added four steals. Ryan Mela had 16 points and finished 7 of 11 from the field, along with eight rebounds. Oswin Erhunmwunse had 10 points and 13 rebounds, marking seven-straight games with double-digit rebounds. He now has three double-doubles on the year, all within the last three weeks.
