Drew Pember - Goes off for 48 Pember closed with 48 points (14-24 FG, 8-10 3Pt, 12-13 FT), 12 rebounds and two blocks in 42 minutes during Wednesday's 88-80 OT win over Presbyterian. Impact Pember and the Bulldogs are now riding an eight-game winning streak, over which the 6-10 senior is averaging 24.8 ppg after scoring 19 or more each time out. What's unique here is Pember's success from distance, as he had been shooting just 22.2 percent from three-point range in the seven games leading up to Wednesday. His previous season-best was four three-pointers made, which he accomplished twice. The Tennessee transfer has clearly found the ideal scenario as he looks to carry UNC-Asheville to an NCAA Tournament berth.
