Forward Cam Holden scored 24 points and had seven steals to lead Towson to a 59-54 road win over Elon. Towson did not have point guards Jason Gibson (death in the family), Terry Nolan and Radhir Hicks.

Here are Skerry's comments:


"Man I'm proud of our guys. This is for the guys not with us. Should get them back soon. They strapped them up. Gill hasn’t played all season. This is such an amazing development guys. Tyler did a great job for us. Had an opportunity. Proud of him. High character kid. Penetrated found Juwan for 3. Towson tough!! True team effort. Rizzuto held Burford to 5 points. Averaging 20 in the league. Gritty, Towson tough tonight. We're going to enjoy the ride. Going to watch the Patriots advance on the bus."

I sure hope the Gill family drove the hour west over from Raleigh to see their son play and ultimately contribute to our 3rd CAA win of the season. 
Condolences to the Gibson family and quick recovery to Nolan & Hicks.

Yup. Elon was 2-0 at home with W&M coming up, who blew that game today. Great win. It was ugly that was the only way for us to win.

All about the team but have to point out Cam’s stats for a 6’5” player who normally plays the 3 but is needed at other spots etc 

17 games/34 minutes/14.5 points/31 steals/8.9 rebounds/62-86 from the line/16-41 from 3

47 assists to 47 turnovers 

(so many more assists if teammates finish plays etc)

This guy is a Swiss Army Knife player.  
Very Draymond Green like.

With 5 players and some of them Shaky at best. 
That was gutty especially after giving up the 9 point lead late.  Holden is a warrior

Just watched the replay on Flo. Not enough superlatives when it comes to Holden. Not just the scoring, but the other facets of his game. The game was hardly an offensive masterpiece, but to win on the road with 2 key players missing speaks to the resilience of the team. Hopefully Nolan will be back soon, as well as Gibson. Would be great to get a W at W&M on Monday & come home 4-1 in conference
