GAME RECAP

IMPACT PLAYER

Nate Mason, Gophers

The 6-foot-2 senior guard scored all of his 17 points in the first half on 5-for-9 shooting from three-point range in 21 minutes, before he had to leave the game because of a lower left leg injury at the 16:33 mark of the second half.

BY THE NUMBERS

11 Three-pointers the Gophers made on 25 attempts, which was the most made shots from beyond the arc since their Nov. 15 victory over Niagara.

14 The double-double streak for Jordan Murphy, who leads the nation in that category. He has had a double-double in every game this season.

25 The Gophers' assist total on 35 field goals, compared to only eight turnovers.
