5 Takeaways From URI's 81-63 Win Over George Mason
Jarvis Garrett
In his second game back from injury, Jarvis Garrett netted 17 points on 6 of 12 shooting from the field, including 4 of 5 from three-point land.
Garrett also dished out 5 assists and grabbed 3 rebounds.
Hassan Martin Fouls
Hassan Martin has been battling some foul issues over the last six games.
Martin picked up 5 fouls against George Washington, Fordham and Saint Joseph's, playing only 21,18 and 15 minutes in those games respectively. URI lost two of those three games.
Martin was fine against UMass only picking up 3 fouls before picking up four fouls against Davidson and Tuesday's game against George Washington.
The Rams do not have much depth at the forward position and with Iverson still out, it is vital that Martin stay out of foul trouble.
Rebounding
URI got beat on the boards 39-31, including 12-4 on the offensive glass.
George Mason netted 16 second chance points off of their 12 offensive rebounds.
The Rams are still without Kuran Iverson who is battling concussion issues and Hassan Martin was in foul trouble early on in the game.
Jared Terrell
Jared Terrell continues to play well for the Rams and has done it on a consistent basis over the last 6 games.
Terrell had 19 points on 8 of 15 shooting from the field and has reached double figures in 6 straight games for URI, posting more than 20 points in 4 of those 6 games.
Against George Mason, Terrell also had three rebounds and five assists.
Four McGlynn
Four McGlynn led URI with 25 points on 9 of 15 shooting from the field, including 6 of 11 from three-point land.
McGlynn has struggled over the last six games, only reaching double-figures one time, but he got hot in this game, like he did against Brown earlier in the season.
McGlynn also grabbed three rebounds in the game.
URI as a team shot 57% from three in the game, 53% from the field.
