QUICK NOTES • Duquesne (7-6), winner of four of its past five, opens Atlantic 10 play at Fordham (6-7) on Friday, Dec. 30 at 7:00 p.m. at Rose Hill Gym (Atlantic 10 Network). The Dukes will be look-ing for their fourth consecutive victory against a Fordham team that is 6-2 at home.

• The Dukes and Rams have been idle for seven and eight days respectively. DU is coming off a 70-57 home win over Colgate on Dec. 22, while Fordham snapped a six-game losing streak with an 83-60 victory over Central Connecticut State at Rose Hill Gym on Dec. 21.

• Duquesne is 19-20 in Atlantic 10 openers, including a 1-3 mark under head coach Jim Ferry. The win came over Fordham at home in 2014-15. DU is 6-13 when opening A-10 play on the road.

• Duquesne, which lost over 70 percent of its scoring from last season, has incorporated a number of newcomers into the 2016-17 rotation. DU’s top four scorers are first-year players: freshman Mike Lewis II (11.8 ppg.), Nebraska transfer sophomore Tarin Smith (11.6 ppg.), graduate transfer Emile Blackman (10.2 ppg.) and freshman Isiaha Mike (10.2 ppg.). None of DU’s top seven scorers averaged more than 9.2 minutes per game last year. This will be the first trip to Rose Hill Gym for 12 of DU’s 16 players.

NEXT UP: Duquesne hosts VCU in its Atlantic 10 home opener on Wednesday, Jan. 4 at 7:00 p.m. (ASN). It will be the Rams first visit to the A.J. Palumbo Center (DU’s two previous home games versus VCU were played at PPG Paints Arena).

PROJECTED TOP SCORING TRANSFERSOn Oct. 13, SI.com released a list of the projected top scoring transfers for 2016-17. SI used its Col-lege Basketball Projection System to simulate the season 10,000 times and generate median stats for every player in the top eight conferences (AAC, ACC, Atlantic 10, Big East, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-12, SEC) as well as their other forecasted at-large bid candidates (Gonzaga, Saint Mary’s, BYU, Wichita State, San Diego State and Princeton). Here is their projected top 100 scoring transfers, according to raw points per game, from that set of teams. The list, which ranks DU graduate transfers Emile Blackman No. 1 and Kale Abrahamson No. 8, is limited to players who have previously appeared at D-I schools; it does not include players who’ve only played at junior colleges:

THEMIKE & MIKE SHOW

Mike Lewis II (11.8 ppg.) & Isiaha Mike (10.2 ppg.) have a chance to become just the second freshman duo in school his-tory to average double digits in the same season. The only DU freshmen who have averaged 10 or more in the same year are Bruce Atkins (13.8 ppg.) and Doug Arnold (10.7 ppg.), who accomplished the feat in 1978-79. Of the 10 top scoring freshmen in school history who finished their career at DU (indicated by an asterisk), nine went on to score 1,000 points (Kenya Hunter is the lone outlier at 971 points):

RECAPFordham hit 13 3-pointers, including three by Mandell Thomas in a 3:11 span late in the second half to pull away and defeat Duquesne, 78-69, at Palumbo Center. Seniors Micah Mason and Derrick Colter led Duquesne (15-15, 5-12) with 19 and 17 points respectively in their final home game. Ryan Rhoomes had 15 points and 17 rebounds for Fordham (16-12, 7-10), who sent the Dukes to their eighth-consecutive defeat. Duquesne took a 63-60 lead on an L.G. Gill 3-pointer, before Thomas went to work, hitting a three to tie it and another to give the Rams a 66-63 lead with just over four minutes left. Thomas, who went 4-of-4 from the arc, finished his 3-point flurry with another to make it 71-65 with 2:52 to go. Duquesne turned it over three times between Gill’s basket and Thomas’ last 3-pointer.

GAME #1DUQUESNE 65, LOYOLA, MD 60

Nov. 11, 2016 • A.J. Palumbo Center • Pittsburgh, Pa.

RECAPTarin Smith led a balanced attack with career a high-tying 13 points, as Duquesne held Loyola, Md. to 36.5 percent shooting in a 65-60 season-opening win at the Palumbo Center. Darius Lewis had five of DU’s 12 blocked shots and first-year graduate transfer Emile Blackman added a career-high 10 boards for the Dukes who shot 41.4 percent. Duquesne, which led for all but a little over eight minutes of the game, took a 60-57 lead on an Eric James free throw with 2:35 left. The Dukes, who held the Greyhounds to 32.3 percent shooting in the second half, got a stop and Smith layup to go up five. Nakye Sanders blocked DU’s 12th shot, and Smith was fouled and hit one free throw to make it 63-57. Loyola got 3-pointer from Andre Walker, who finished with 21 points, to make it a three-point game with just over a minute left. Blackman missed a 3-point attempt deep in the shot clock, but James tracked down the rebound. Following a timeout, Mike Lewis II was stripped of the ball on a drive, but James once again came up with the ball, was fouled, and hit a pair of free throws with :11.1 left for the final margin. Freshman Spencer Littleson scored eight points and James added seven points and six rebounds for a Duquesne bench that out-scored Loyola’s 23-3. The Dukes matched their largest lead on a Smith jumper that made it 36-27 with 2:07 to go in the first half. Loyola got a jumper from Jarred Jones, who tied Walker for game scoring honors with 21 points, at the first half horn to make it 36-32. The Greyhounds outscored the Dukes 8-2 out of the half to take a 40-38 lead. The game remained tight until Littleson gave the Dukes the lead for good on a 3-pointer with 10:35 left. Duquesne took a 57-52 lead on a steal and breakaway dunk by Isiaha Mike with 6:54 remaining. Loyola cut it to two on a Jones bucket with just over three minutes left, before Duquesne closed the door.

NOTESFreshmen Isiaha Mike and Mike Lewis II both started ... it was the first time Duquesne started multiple freshmen in a season opener since 2006-07 when Scott Grote, Robert Mitchell and Stephen Wood started against Youngstown State ... it was just the third time in 30 years that more than one freshman started the opening game ... four of DU’s five starters: Isiaha Mike, Mike Lewis II, Tarin Smith and Emile Blackman, were playing their first game in a Duquesne uniform.

RECAPRene Castro came off the bench to hit six 3-pointers on his way to a career-high 26 points as Duquesne shot 62.1 percent in the second half to defeat Saint Francis U, 89-75 at the Palumbo Center. Fellow guard Tarin Smith added a career-best 23 and freshman Isiaha Mike scored 16 for the Dukes, who rallied from a 10-point first half deficit. Saint Francis took advantage of 11 Duquesne turnovers in the first nine-plus minutes to build a 20-10 lead. The Red Flash led 33-23 with 4:36 left in the half when Castro started a 13-2 run with his second of four first-half 3-pointers. Castro added two more treys during the run that saw the Dukes take their first lead at 36-35 on a Smith free throw. Smith, who had 13 in the half, hit a runner just before the horn to give the Dukes a 38-36 halftime lead. Duquesne hit 14 of its first 18 shots of the second half to take its first double-digit lead on a Castro 3-pointer that made it 60-49 with a little over 13 minutes left.

GAME #4CANISIUS 78, DUQUESNE 77


RECAPPhil Valenti hit a pair of shots in the final 14 seconds - the second the game-winner with :01.9 left - to give Canisius a 78-77 win over Duquesne at the Pa-lumbo Center. Valenti’s winner came after Duquesne’s Isiaha Mike hit a baseline jumper with seven seconds left to give the Dukes the lead. Canisius quickly inbounded the ball and Isaiah Reese dribbled down the left side. He found Valenti at the foul line and Valenti launched a shot just over the outstretched hand of a closing Tarin Smith. The loss snapped Duquesne’s non-conference win streak at 11. Smith and first-year graduate transfer Emile Blackman led Duquesne with 18 points each. Mike, who went 7-of-10 from the field, finished with 17. The Dukes forced eight turnovers in the first nine minutes of the second half in taking their largest lead at 61-53 lead on a Mike dunk with 12:04 left. Mike’s field goal was the Duke’s last until the 1:25 mark. All 11 DU points during the field goal drought came from the foul line. Canisius took its first lead since the opening two minutes of the second half when Jermaine Crumpton, who led Canisius with 18 points, grabbed a 3-point miss and put it back to make it 72-70. Blackman tied it at 74-74 on a driving layup with 1:25 left. Following a Canisius turnover, Lewis II drove and had his shot blocked out of bounds. DU inbounded with seven seconds on the shot clock and Blackman was fouled and hit one of two to make it a one-point game with :29 left. Valenti tracked down a Kassius Robertson 3-point miss and layed it in, setting up the final exchange of baskets. Canisius went 13-of-26 from the arc in shooting 50 percent overall. Duquesne, which outscored the Griffs 42-22 in the paint, was 4-of-17 from the arc and 21-of-32 from the foul line. The Dukes, who were 0-of-7 from 3-point in the second half, finished at 48.1 percent. The Golden Griffins hit seven of their first 11 3-point attempts in building a 33-22 lead. Canisius took its largest lead at 43-31 on a Kassius Robertson 3-pointer, the Griffs ninth, before Duquesne roared back with a 10-0 run to make it 43-41 at the half. There were 10 ties and 17 lead changes in the game.

NOTESDarius Lewis posted his sixth career double-digit rebound game with 11 in 21 minutes ... Blackman’s 18 points were his high as a Duke ... Mike finished with 17 points and 7 rebounds in a team-high 36 minutes ... Canisius’ largest lead was 12 with 2:28 left in the first half (31-43) ...

GAME #5No. 2 (AP) KENTUCKY 93, DUQUESNE 59

Nov. 20, 2016 • Rupp Arena • Lexington, Ky.

RECAPDe’Aaron Fox led five players in double figures with 16 points, as No 2. (AP) Kentucky extended its home win streak to 40 with a 93-59 win over Duquesne at Rupp Arena. Emile Blackman and Tarin Smith led Duquesne with 13 and 10 points respectively. Isiaha Mike had a game-high 10 rebounds for the Dukes. Kentucky, the highest-ranked team Duquesne faced since December of 2006, held the Dukes to 30.4 percent shooting, including 5-of-25 from 3-point. “That’s one of the most talented teams I’ve seen with their length, athleticism and depth,” said Duquesne head coach Jim Ferry. “And then when [Kentucky head coach] John [Calipari] gets these guys playing this hard, its overwhelming. At times I thought we couldn’t make a pass - and we couldn’t get by anybody - and when we did, the ball was blocked.” Seven UK players combined reject 10 Duquesne shots. “The game plan was to make them try to take 30 threes,” said Ferry. “When they missed, they were just relentless on the glass to get 16 offensive rebounds like that. They just keep coming.” Kentucky, which went 7-of-26 3-point, finished with 19 second-chance points and outscored the Dukes 44-20 in the paint. The win made Kentucky 122-4 at Rupp Arena under Calipari. “I’ve been doing this for 19 years and this is the best college atmosphere I’ve ever been involved in,” said Ferry. “An hour and a half before the game there were 2,000 people here. That’s something special. Its a great advantage and I don’t know that they are going to lose another one here.”

NOTESThe win upped Kentucky’s Rupp Arena record to 122-4 under John Calipari ... the game was Duquesne’s first against an SEC opponent in 19 years ... the No. 2 (AP) Wildcats were the highest-ranked team Duquesne faced since at No. 2 Pitt on Dec. 6, 2006 ... the Dukes went 5-of-25 (.200) from the 3-point arc ... DU’s seven assists on its 17 field goals tied a Ferry Era low ... UK outrebounded DU 49-32 ... the ‘Cats turned 16 offensive rebounds into 19 second-chance points ... Duquesne turned it over 18 times ... the Dukes went a Ferry Era best 20-of-22 (.909) from the foul line.

GAME #9DUQUESNE 64, PITT 55

Dec. 2, 2016 • PPG Paints Arena • Pittsburgh, Pa.

RECAPEmile Blackman scored a game-high 21 points to lead Duquesne to a 64-55 win over Pitt in the annual City Game at PPG Paints Arena. The win was the Dukes’ first in the series since 1998, ending a 15-game losing streak. Mike Lewis II had 15 and Tarin Smith added 12 for the Dukes, who limited Pitt to 33.3 percent shooting. Duquesne, which trailed by one at the half, took a one-point lead on a Blackman 3-pointer with 15:54 left. The Dukes upped the advantage to nine on a Lewis II 3-pointer at the 12:35 mark before Pitt held DU without a field goal for over five minutes to regain the lead on a Ryan Luther bucket with 6:55 to go. DU answered with back-to-back 3-pointers from Blackman - his fourth - and Rene Castro to take a 53-46 lead with 5:30 left. Pitt pulled to within two on a Luther free throw before Lewis II hit a jumper, then was fouled by Luther on a 3-point attempt and buried all three free throws to make it 58-51 with 2:01 to go. Pitt would get no closer than five the rest of the way. There were four ties and 10 lead changes early, with neither team mustering a lead of more than two. The score was tied at 18-18 when Duquesne endured a 5:25 stretch without a field goal. Eric James ended the drought with a layup which made it 27-20. Pitt’s Sheldon Jeter answered with a 3-pointer to give Pitt its largest lead. Jeter’s bucket was the Panthers’ last of the half as the Dukes closed with a 9-0 run. Blackman provided the spark with a layup and traditional 3-point play to make it 30-29 at the half. Duquesne held Pitt scoreless for the final 4:31 of the half. There were four ties and 15 lead changes prior to Castro’s bucket at the 5:30 mark. DU finished at 40 percent from the field, including 8-of-26 from the 3-point arc. Pitt finished 3-of-22 from the arc, including 0-of-12 in the second half.

NOTES The win was DU’s first over the Panthers since a 71-70 victory at the Civic Arena on Dec. 21, 2000 ... this was Duquesne’s first win over an ACC team since a 98-93 overtime win at Boston College on Dec. 28, 2006 ... it was also head coach Jim Ferry’s first win over an ACC team in seven tries ... Duquesne, which entered the game averaging 16.8 turnovers per game, finished with a season-low 8 ... with his 3-pointer at the 11:40 mark of the first half, Emile Blackman reached the 1,000-point mark for his career ... there were four ties and 15 lead changes before Duquesne took the lead for good on a Rene Castro 3-pointer with 6:30 left ... Pitt’s largest lead was 10 at 30-20 with 3:09 remaining in the first half ... Duquesne’s largest lead was the nine-points which it reached twice in addition to the final margin ... Duquesne led for 21:15, Pitt led for 15:35.

GAME #10ROBERT MORRIS 64, DUQUESNE 60

Dec. 6, 2016 • PPG Paints Arena • Pittsburgh, Pa.

RECAPIsaiah Still hit a driving layup with 15 seconds left and followed it with a big block at the other end to help Robert Morris to a 64-60 win over Duquesne at PPG Paints Arena. Still, who finished with a game-high 22 points, drove into traffic to bank in the go-ahead bucket and followed that with a block of an Emile Blackman layup attempt five seconds later. Clive Allen, who finished with 11 points, hit four free throws in the final seven seconds to ice the win. “That was a heck of a shot he [Still] made at the end of the game,” said Duquesne head coach Jim Ferry. “Off balance with guys all over him. You’ve got to give him credit.” Mike Lewis II, who gave the Dukes a 59-58 lead on a drive with 30 seconds left, led four Dukes in double figures with 15 points. Blackman fin-ished with 12 and Nakye Sanders added 11 points, 16 rebounds and 5 blocks off the bench. “That was a physical, hard-fought game by both teams,” said Ferry. “I thought they outscrapped us in the first half and we outscrapped them in the second half. For us, like most of the times, it came down to turnovers and free throws.” Duquesne, which shot 38.3 percent, turned it over 16 times, including nine in the second half. Robert Morris shot 41.7 percent in the game that featured 11 ties and 17 lead changes. The Dukes and Colonials both went 9-of-19 from the foul line. “It doesn’t matter what the records are when you play Robert Morris,” said Ferry. “This is what the game’s going to be. “Turnovers obviously hurt us. They have been hurting us all year.” Robert Morris took its largest lead at 42-33 on a Matty McConnell jumper with 18:27 left, before Duquesne rallied to tie it on a Sanders layup with 14:58 to go. Neither team led by more than four the rest of the way.

NOTES Nakye Sanders came off the bench to set career highs for points (11), rebounds (16) and blocks (5) in posting his first career double-double in 30 minutes of action ... the 16 boards were the most by a DU player since Dominique McKoy had 16 vs. George Mason on Jan. 31, 2015 ... there were 11 ties and 17 lead changes before Robert Morris took the lead for good on Still’s layup with :15 left ... RMU’s largest lead was nine at 42-33 with 17:58 left ... Duquesne’s largest lead was seven points (20-13) with 11:12 to go in the first half ... Duquesne led for 12:34, Robert Morris led for 17:56 ... the game was tied for 9:30.

GAME #11DUQUESNE 70, CCSU 67

Dec. 10, 2016 • A.J. Palumbo Center • Pittsburgh, Pa.

RECAP Isiaha Mike’s 3-pointer with 15.9 seconds left proved to be the game-winner as Duquesne rallied from five points down with 1:34 remaining to defeat Cen-tral Connecticut State, 70-67, at Palumbo Center. Mike, who tied with fellow freshman Mike Lewis II for team scoring honors with 17 points, took a pass from Lewis II - who had drawn an extra defender near the top of the key - and buried the 3-pointer from the left wing. CCSU’s Mustafa Jones missed a con-tested jumper from the foul line and Emile Blackman, who finished with 11 points, rebounded the miss and hit a pair of free throws with :01.9 left to seal the win. CCSU matched its largest lead on a pair of Eric Bowles free throws that made it 67-62. Mike followed by hitting one of two free throws and Blackman added a layup to set up Mike’s game-winner. The Dukes held the Blue Devils without a field goal over the final 2:21. Duquesne shot 50 percent in the second half and 44.4 percent for the game. CCSU, which went 6-of-11 from 3-point, finished at 41.7 percent. Second-year JC transfer Tidell Pierre, whose previous career high was 12, went 2-of-2 from the 3-point arc in scoring a game-high 21 points. Pierre entered the game 1-of-3 from 3-point in his first 29 games at CCSU. Neither team led by more than three in a first half that ended with the score tied at 27-27. Rene Castro, who finished with 12 points for Duquesne, had 10 in the opening 20 minutes. Duquesne got 3-pointers from Blackman, Mike and Lewis II in the first 2:30 of the second half to take an eight-point lead. CCSU scored on its next four possessions to make it 42-40 with 15:49 to go. The Blue Devils capped an 11-2 run with a Khalen Cumberlander dunk to take a 51-48 lead with just over 12 minutes left and took their first five-point lead on an Austin Nehls free throw that made it 58-53 with 8:44 to go. The Dukes scored the next six, with Mike accounting for the last four on a dunk and layup, before the Blue Devils responded with five in a row of their own to take a 63-59 lead with under four minutes left.

NOTES Duquesne, which had seven turnovers in the first half, finished with 12 ... the Duquesne bench, led by 12 points from Castro, outscored the CCSU bench 17-5 ... 11 players saw action for the Dukes ... there were 11 ties and 10 lead changes before Mike’s 3-pointer ...
