One of the most notable was Rafa Ledesma, who went 7 for 10 on his way to 16 points in addition to eight boards and four steals. The dominant performance also gave him a new career-high in assists (four). Nicholas Ordonez Reyes was another key player, going 6 of 8 from beyond the arc en route to 18 points.

Drew's victory bumped their record up to 8-13. As for Jewish Community, their defeat dropped their record down to 4-11.
Things could have been worse for Jewish Community, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took a 62-45 loss to Drew in their previous meeting on January 9th. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of Drew's Kian Chan, who went 9 for 19 on his way to 25 points and seven rebounds. Now that Jewish Community knows the damage he can cause, will they be able to stop him this time? There's only one way to find out.
