Goes for game-high 28 points Spears logged 28 points (10-19 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 7-9 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one steal over 43 minutes during Tuesday's 99-89 OT win over Coppin State. Impact Spears got the start in his first game with the Hoyas and was brilliant in a hard fought overtime victory. He looked to be riding the momentum he ended last year on with Duquesne in which he averaged 29.7 points, 5.3 assists, 3.7 rebounds, 2.3 steals, and 1.7 three-pointers over the final three games. It's unclear where he stands in the pecking order once Jay Heath and Dante Harris return, but Spears definitely showed he can be a reliable scorer in the opener.
