Charles Pride - Sparks team in second halfPride totaled 24 points, eight rebounds, and three steals in Wednesday's NEC quarterfinal victory over Central Connecticut.

ImpactFor the second straight game, Pride sizzled in the second half and snapped the Bulldogs out of a brief malaise. Peter Kiss is seen as Bryant's superstar and that's fair -- he is, after all, the leading scorer in the nation -- but Pride is the heartbeat of the Bulldogs, and the team's best clutch player. It was no surprise when Pride joined Kiss on the All-NEC first team roster, which was announced Tuesday.

Greg Calixte - Sparks Bulldogs off benchCalixte collected 11 points, nine rebounds, and three blocks in Wednesday's NEC quarterfinal victory over Central Connecticut.

ImpactCalixte played 25 minutes off the bench, compared to just 16 for starter Hall Elisias. It's possible head coach Jared Grasso simply rolled with Calixte once the senior got hot, but Elisias also didn't appear 100 percent. It's a situation to monitor in advance of Saturday's semifinal game against Mount St. Mary's.

Hall Elisias - Limited to 16 minutesElisias played just 16 minutes in Wednesday's NEC quarterfinal victory over Central Connecticut. He finished with two points and six rebounds.

ImpactElisias recently returned from a lower-body injury, and it's possible he wasn't 100 percent Tuesday. Greg Calixte picked up the slack, contributing 11 points and nine rebounds off the bench. The Bulldogs will need one of these big men to contribute if they're going to beat Mount St. Mary's on Saturday.
