NOTE: Stats are for the week from Jan. 12-18
Men's College Basketball Stats
Division I: Rahsool Diggins, G, UMass
Does Diggins’ selection have a lot to do with the Minutemen’s bonkers 120-118, triple-overtime victory at Fordham last Wednesday?
Well, yes, because Diggins was doing some truly historic things in a game that was chock-full of video game numbers.
In a game that featured 122 free throws (the most in a D-I game since 1996-97), 119 total rebounds, and nine players who fouled out, Diggins dropped a sizzling school-record 46 points and tied the UMass single-game record with eight 3-pointers as he led the Minutemen to a marathon win by leading the way with 48 minutes played.
On the night before the 100th birthday of Fordham’s Rose Hill Gymnasium, Diggins tied the all-time scoring record at the venue in its first-ever triple-overtime game and broke a 55-year-old record for the most points ever scored by a visiting player on the Rams’ home court. The old record was 37 points, held by another former UMass star you might have heard of before: Julius Erving.
That game was the only qualifying outing for Diggins for this week’s edition of Video Game Numbers, but when you have a night like the one the Minutemen had in The Bronx last Wednesday, it’s impossible to ignore.
History repeats itself 😤

A pair of legendary performances almost 54 years apart!!#Flagship🚩 pic.twitter.com/C9FgwrshNH
Division II: Jordan Jermain, G, William Jewell
Jermain had two qualifying games that earned him a spot on this week’s edition of Video Game Numbers, but it was his second performance that got him the most attention.
Last Saturday in an overtime loss at home to Indianapolis, the fifth-year sharpshooter was lethal from beyond the arc and just about unstoppable overall as he broke the school single-game record for 3-pointers with nine in a 45-point outburst, tied for the most in the NCAA era at William Jewell.
Playing every minute for the Cardinals, Jermain had three 3s in the first 10 minutes and kept on rolling from there against the Greyhounds, additionally pulling down eight rebounds over the course of the game. It was his fourth game of the season with at least five triples as the 36.2% 3-point shooter has proven that he can turn it on from beyond the arc at any time and at any place. He additionally had an 18-point game two nights before in William Jewell’s narrow loss to Lewis.
The Cardinals are only 5-12 on the year as of Wednesday night, but at least they have a really, really fun player wearing their jersey.
What a performance 🔥

Division III: Sean Neylon, G, Catholic
Catholic needed some big performances out of its stars to keep pace at the top of the Landmark Conference after losing to league leader Drew on Jan. 11th.
In back-to-back wins on the road at Juniata and Scranton in which they were led by the 6-foot-6 Neylon, the Cardinals did just that.
And there’s a lesson to be learned for the remaining teams in the Landmark who have to see the Cardinals this season — don’t leave Neylon, a reigning All-Landmark Second Team selection, unguarded at any point.
The Delaware native shot an incredible 70% (14 for 20) combined from beyond the 3-point line in Catholic’s two victories, first dumping 23 points on 7-for-9 shooting from deep against Juniata followed by a 30-point outburst on 7-for-11 shooting from 3 against Scranton. Neylon additionally never missed a free throw in either game and set a season high for scoring in the latter matchup, as well, scoring 23 of his points in the first half against the Royals.
With the victories, Catholic extended the nation’s longest winning streak (in any division) on the road to 17 games, and Neylon — D-III’s leader in 3-point percentage at an awesome 53.8% — has been a major reason why the Cardinals have established an identity as road warriors.
Sean Neylon scored a career-high 30 points as @CatholicU_MBB extended the longest road win streak in @NCAA men's basketball to 17 games. #ThisIsCatholicU #d3hoops https://t.co/4Un9D87JBR

Division I: T’yana Todd, G, Boston College
A solid 18-point night in the Eagles’ loss at North Carolina on Jan. 12 was good, but Todd’s outing last Thursday at Miami in Boston College’s first win in Coral Gables since 2009 was outstanding, especially from beyond the 3-point line.
The 6-foot junior guard from Canada erupted for a school-record eight triples (scoring 29 points in all) in the Eagles’ 83-79 victory over the Hurricanes to additionally snap what had been a four-game losing streak going into the matchup. It was a season-best scoring mark for Todd this season as she also corralled six rebounds (five offensive) to boot in the Eagles’ much-needed victory.
Many of Todd’s 3-pointers were also assisted by Kaylah Ivey — an honorable mention for this slot if you will, after she tallied a program-record 16 assists in the same game — as BC’s offense hummed like a well-oiled machine for might of the night down in south Florida as it had 24 assists to 13 turnovers and shot 12 for 27 (44.4%) from beyond the arc.
Boston College went on to blow out Syracuse on Sunday before a monster home game against No. 3 Notre Dame awaits Thursday night. Maybe Todd can find a little more magic from deep to give the Eagles a little bit more of a chance when facing the Fighting Irish.

Division II: Nala Williams, G, Cal State Dominguez Hills
The leader of the still-unbeaten Toros, who improved to 18-0 this past week with wins over Cal State East Bay and San Francisco State, Williams — a two-time All-California Collegiate Athletic Association pick — lit it up for CSUDH in the two lopsided victories at the Torodome.
Currently pacing D-II in steals per game (4.7 as of Wednesday night), Williams first improved upon that number against East Bay last Thursday when she swiped a season-high eight steals to go along with 20 points and six assists on 9-for-14 shooting in just 25 minutes in the Toros’ dominant 100-53 triumph.
She didn’t slow down at all in CSUDH’s 93-47 throttling of San Francisco State two days later, either, getting close to a double-double with 24 points and nine rebounds to go along with four steals and three assists. That number of boards is made even more impressive when you consider that Williams is only 5-8 and is the third-leading rebounder on the Toros normally.
Arguably the frontrunner for CCAA Player of the Year (as well as likely being on pace to find some space on some All-America teams at season’s end), Williams and the Toros have serious national championship potential as a perfect regular season is not out of the question. Check Williams, the Toros and the rest of the CCAA women’s hoops slate out on FloCollege if you want to watch some potential history in the making.
Division III: Mary Schleusner, F, Washington & Lee
You’ve probably heard of the 20 points and 20 rebounds game, which for a player who pulls it off is making a statement that they are among the elite of the elite down on the low block.
Well, what about a 30 and 30 game?
Earning her way into being one of the easiest selections for Video Game Numbers this season, Schleusner — D-III’s leading rebounder by almost four boards — did something Saturday against Roanoke that no player, man or woman, has done across all levels of NCAA basketball this season, scoring 31 points and pulling down 31 rebounds in the Generals’ comfortable 77-50 win.
Schleusner had the same amount of rebounds by herself as Roanoke had between all of its players combined, pulling down 15 offensive boards alone as W&L demolished the Maroons in second-chance points 23-2. Believe it or not, this is the second time that Schleusner has tallied a 30-30 game in her career, having also done so last season in the NCAA Tournament.
Oh, and if that wasn’t enough to drive the point home, Schleusner’s other qualifying game last Wednesday against Shenandoah saw her “only” score 25 points and corral down 24 rebounds — an outstanding game in itself which plays second fiddle to her monster night a few days later.
The junior and reigning First Team All-American isn’t just averaging a double-double but is in striking distance of averaging 20 and 20 (19.9 points, 18.3 rebounds per game). It was only a matter of time with numbers like that that Schleusner would find herself on Video Game Numbers, and here she is.
