UC-Riverside lineup

[jayschool]

I found the stats from UC-Riverside's first game at Life Pacific's website. UCR's athletics department doesn't have them.

They ran an eight-man rotation, generally, though 10 men saw action.

Starters:

1. Khy Kabellis, 6-4, Senior/Gr. (25 minutes, 9 points, 2-5 from deep, 8 rebounds, 4 assists)
2. D.J. McDonald, 5-11, Sophomore (18 minutes, 6 points, 2-6 from deep, 0 assists)
3. Dominick Pickett, 6-3, Junior (26 minutes, 7 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists)
4. Daniel Mading, 6-9 Sophomore (22 minutes, 8 points, 2-5 from deep, 7 rebounds)
5. Callum McRae, 7-1 Sophomore (27 minutes, 15 points, 9 rebounds)

Bench:

• Zyon Pullin, 6-4 Freshman (26 minutes, 0 points, 3 assists, 4 rebounds)
• Zac Watson, 6-7 Sophomore (22 minutes, 8 points, 3 rebounds)
• George Willborn, 6-3 Junior (22 minutes, 11 points on 10 shots, 4 rebounds)

Below is the image of the final stats. UCR led 37-26 at half, and won 73-45 in front of 285 rabid Highlander hoops fanatics.

Pretty good size with starters at 6 9 and 7 1.  Good test right off the bat as far as defending the post.

9      15     Dikymbe Martin        G  6' 1" 170 lbs    SR                 Riverside, CA
10     22   Dominick Pickett        G  6' 3" 210 lbs    JR             Moreno Valley, CA
11     23    Angus McWilliam        F 6' 10" 240 lbs    SO     Christchurch, New Zealand
12     24       Jaylen Cross        G  6' 4" 185 lbs    FR                Melbourne, Australia
13     25       Callum McRae        C  7' 1" 275 lbs    SO Palmerston North, New Zealand
14     35 George Willborn II        G  6' 3" 195 lbs    JR                   Chicago, IL

 

You'll notice the 2 players from New Zealand and 3 from Australia. This is due to 2nd year head coach David Patrick. Patrick grew up in Australia and is probably most famous for being an assistant coach at LSU where he got his godson Ben Simmons to hang out for a year.

Daniel Mading? His name sounds familiar. Did we try to recruit him?

There’s a guy we’re recruiting right now with the last name Mading. Can’t remember his first babe though.

Marial Mading. I think he's Daniel's brother. And, yes, Daniel was someone we recruited. Might even have gotten a visit from.

If this was the evening of deliverance, then Riverside was a toothless hillbilly and Nebraska was Ned Beatty.
