Big rebounding day Cenac supplied eight points (2-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist, one block and three steals across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 79-70 win over TCU.

Impact Houston tends to get most of its scoring from the backcourt, as shown by Kingston Flemings scoring 27 and Emmanuel Sharp chipping in 23 in the road win Wednesday. While Cenac is still capable of logging the occasional double-double, he affects the game in many ways beyond scoring. This was his season-best rebounding total, and the freshman has also combined for eight steals in his last four games.
