JACOB YOUNG NEWS

Coming off bench Sunday Young is not starting in Sunday's game against Indiana.

Impact Head coach Steve Pikiell is shaking the lineup a bit for Sunday's tilt as Young and Montez Mathis will be swapped out for Caleb McConnell and Paul Mulcahy. Young is one of the more skilled offensive players for the Scarlet Knights as he averages 15.2 points and 4.2 assists per game but will look to provide a spark off the bench instead.
