SPRINGBORN TOPS 30-POINT MARK AT NORTHWOOD

Since a Dec. 21 game vs. Minnesota Duluth — a span of five games, Springborn is averaging 21.0 points.

STROM NEEDS 22 FOR 1,000
Senior Tim Strom needs 22 points to become the 21st 1,000-point scorer in Michigan Tech history. The 6-7 forward also owns 486 career rebounds. He is looking to become just the 12th player in school history to reach both the 1,000-point and 500-rebound milestones. Strom leads the team in scoring on the season at 13.9 points.

FEDRICK COLLECTS THIRD DOUBLE-DOUBLE
Junior Fedrick Bowe moved into the team lead in rebounding by ripping down 25 boards in two games last week. The 6-5 forward notched his third double-double of the season at Northwood with 10 points and 14 rebounds. He followed that up with six points and 11 rebounds at Saginaw Valley State. Bowe's 6.5 rebounds per game average ranks 11th in the GLIAC.

DECADE OF SUCCESS
Michigan Tech owns one of the most successful programs in the GLIAC since Jan. 1, 2000, with a 166-78 (.680 pct) record. During the decade, the Huskies have won three GLIAC Championships, qualified for the NCAA Tournament four times and participated in the GLIAC Tournament all seven opportunities.

HISTORY VS. WAYNE STATE, HILLSDALE
Michigan Tech will face Wayne State for the 70th time in the series, which began in 1949. The Warriors own a 46-23 all-time advantage, but the teams have each won five of the last 10 meetings. The Huskies trail Hillsdale, 23-22, in that series. The Chargers claimed a 77-61 win in Hillsdale a year ago, but the Huskies had won the previous five in a row.

GEARY GETS FIRST TWO STARTS
Junior point guard Sean Geary started his first two games of the season last week and made it count. The 5-10 Geary notched six points, a career-high 10 rebounds, four assists and four steals in an overtime win at Northwood (Jan. 10). He then had three points, two rebounds and two assists at Saginaw Valley State (Jan. 12). For the week, Geary played 65 minutes at point guard and did not commit a turnover.
