On Nov. 17 against Washington, Nemeiksa racked up 20 points and three rebounds.

On Nov. 20 against Loyola Marymount, Townsend notched 18 points and eight boards.
Senior guard Jack Gohlke has been a floor-spacing perimeter threat. Gohlke owns a sweet jumper and is able to score off the dribble. The Wisconsin native logs 13.7 points and 4.8 rebounds per game.
