Christian Shumate - Force for Cowboys Shumate closed Saturday's 87-71 win over UIW with 18 points (8-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT) and 10 rebounds across 20 minutes.
Impact Shumate's scoring has dropped a bit from last season's 15.1 ppg mark, but there's still time to recover, and more importantly, he's helping the team in other ways. He now has four consecutive double-doubles, averaging 13.8 points and 11.3 rebounds over that span. As a result, McNeese State now has a 13-1 conference record and a three-game lead atop the Southland standings with four games to go. It's not outlandish to say that even if the Cowboys falter, they might have an outside chance at an at-large NCAA Tournament bid.
