Posts career-high 35 points Olivari had a team-high 35 points (12-20 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 5-7 FT) to go along with six rebounds across 22 minutes off the bench in Tuesday's 90-79 victory over Houston Baptist. Impact Olivari has yet to start a game for the Owls this season, but leads the team in scoring at 18.8 ppg over only 23.3 mpg. He's been especially hot in his last four games, putting up 24.5 points to go along 4.5 rebounds. The sophomore appeared in 30 games for Rice last season, averaging 6.0 points across 14.2 minutes. His role has clearly stepped up this year and he may be a candidate for the starting five in the near future as a result.
