Opening Tip

- With a triple in the first half on Wednesday evening, senior Joey Ptasinski became the 41st Leopard to reach the 1,000-point plateau for his career. Ptasinski, senior Dan Trist and classmate Seth Hinrichs are now the first trio of 1,000-point scorers on the same team in Lafayette history.

- As part of Coaches vs. Cancer Suits and Sneakers Awareness Week, members of the Lafayette and Lehigh coaching staffs will wear sneakers with their suits while coaching Saturday's contest. For more information, visit CoachesVsCancer.org.

- Lafayette ranks in the top-30 nationally in all three offensive efficiency categories, including holding the third spot in the country in three-point shooting percentage, knocking in distance shots at a 41.9 percent rate. Additionally, The Leopards are eighth in free-throw percentage (76.2%) and 26th in overall field-goal percentage (48.0%).

- Ptasinski has been excellent this season, ranking first in the nation in three-point shooting percentage (52.6%) and 36th in three's per game at 2.8 per contest, also good enough for first in the league ranks.
