Tony Osburn - Slower shooting night Osburn finished with eight points (2-6 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two steals in a 85-75 win over St. Thomas.

Impact Osburn, the team's three-point specialist, took a backseat despite being the the team's third highest scorer during the regular season, averaging 12.2 points per game. For a team that ranks top-50 in the nation in three-point shooting, Osburn may have nights where he defers to hotter shooters, in this case JJ White and Marquel Sutton. The slow night came just a day after the junior nailed eight threes and scored 30 points.

Marquel Sutton - Double-double in title game Sutton scored 22 points (7-16 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 8-9 FT), hauled in 18 rebounds, dished out two assists and recorded a steal in an 85-75 win over St. Thomas to win the Summit League tour...

Impact Less than a week removed from being named Summit League Player of the Year, Sutton continued to dominate. The senior forward secured his highest rebounding total of the season in the Mavericks' biggest game of the year. He dominated in the tournament setting, averaging 23.0 points per game and 12.3 rebounds in the three-game run to the title.

MARCH 14 • ROTOWIRE

JJ White - Explodes for 29 in tourney win White finished with 29 points (10-14 FG, 6-8 FT, 3-5 3Pt), five assists and two rebounds in the Summit League final win against St. Thomas.

Impact White proved he can be a strong second option and can even carry the scoring load for the Mavericks. He's been a microwave all season, scoring over 20 points seven times throughout the team's run through the Summit League. The senior did so efficiently Sunday as well, shooting nearly 50 percent from the field throughout the season and 43.9 percent from three. He led the team in assists throughout the season, totaling 135 while taking advantage of playing alongside dominating forward Marquel Sutton.
