Since Tuesday’s Taping
Since Tuesday's taping, No. 2 ranked Augusta earned an 80-76 overtime road win over Catawba Wednesday. The Jaguars improved to 5-0. Tyshaun Crawford continued his dominant play by scoring 21 points, snagging 13 rebounds and swatting away 5 shots. Miguel Arnold scored 19 points, including 3 three pointers in the second half. Darren Lucas-White added 14 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists before fouling out with 3 minutes left in regulation. Tyree Myers scored 12 points, 4 assists and 3 steals, and he made the go ahead bucket in regulation (which was answered to force overtime), as well as the one in overtime. David Viti also scored 12 points, and he iced the game with 2 made free throws with 4 seconds remaining. And Timmy Sellers made a key defensive play on Catawba's final possession to force a turnover and preserve Augusta's lead before Viti put things out of reach.
The themes discussed in episode 3 of The Dip Metress Show (above) were very much still in play in Wednesday night’s game. The show is proving to be a great companion piece for Augusta's season. So get to know fan favorite Darren Lucas-White and how he feels about his teammates and his experience in Augusta.
