Efficient in eight minutes Epperson had six points (3-6 FG) and six rebounds across eight minutes off the bench in Tuesday's 94-67 victory over Omaha.
Impact Epperson's sophomore season was cut a bit short due to a leg injury, but the 6-11 center has now seen exactly eight minutes as a reserve in both games this season. He's also rejected three shots during his limited time on the court. It's unclear if the former four-star recruit will see his role expand, but in the meantime, the BlueJays are going with a smaller lineup featuring Christian Bishop at center, with seven-footer Ryan Kalkbrenner working as the primary reserve.
