STORYLINES
- CofC is coming off a thrilling one-point win over William & Mary to snap a 3-game losing skid. Charleston played in its sixth game decided by one possession this season, improving to 4-2 in such contests. Four different Cougars have scored the game-winning bucket in those nailbiters, with John Meeks playing the hero on Tuesday night.Â
- Charleston is 6-3 in games decided by five or fewer points this season. The Cougars have played in nine straight games decided by single digits.Â
- CofC continues its current homestand Thursday after improving to 7-3 at TD Arena with the win over the Tribe. The Cougars play Hofstra for the 15th time in their program histories with the series deadlocked at 7-7.
- Charleston has won five of the last eight matchups in the series with the Pride. CofC is 5-2 all-time at TD Arena against Hofstra.
- Reyne Smith continued his historic freshman campaign, lighting up William & Mary to the tune of a career-high 25 points on six threes. He now has four games with 6+ 3s this season, including two in a row. Only Andrew Goudelock had more in a season since 2010, tallying five such games  during the 2010-11 campaign.
- Smith already has 56 3-pointers this season, which is 17 shy of tying Goudelock's all-time CofC freshmen record for triples in a campaign with 73. Smith is the reigning CAA Rookie of the Week, after earning his CAA-best fifth such honor on Monday, Jan. 24.Â
- Junior center Charles Lampten came alive defensively on Tuesday, racking up a season-high five blocks, the most by a Cougar since Adjehi Baru in 2013.Â
- Charleston is leading the CAA and ranking sixth nationally with 42.06 rebounds per game after snagging 48 more in Tuesday's win. Â That is on pace to be the best rebounding season for the Cougars since CofC became a Division I program and the fourth-best team rebounding average during a season in program history.Â
- The Cougars are averaging an eye-popping 47 boards per game over the last three games. CofC hasn't been outrebounded since Dec. 12.Â
- Since returning from injury, John Meeks is averaging 17.8 points per game after lifting CofC to a win on Tuesday. In that 6-game stretch, he's shooting 50.7 percent from the floor and has scored in double figures in every game.Â
