The 7-foot freshman has played a small role for the yellow jackets off the bench this season, averaging 1.3 points and 1.8 rebounds in 9.3 minutes per game. His next chance to return will come against Virginia on Wednesday.

Cole Certa scores career-high 37 points and Notre Dame tops Georgia Tech 89-74

Cole Certa scored a career-high 37 points, including a career-high seven 3-pointers, and Notre Dame rolled past Georgia Tech 89-74 to snap a five-game losing streak

Cole Certa - Explodes for 37 points in win Certa contributed 37 points (12-20 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 6-6 FT) and three rebounds in 40 minutes during Saturday's 89-74 victory over Georgia Tech.

Impact Certa has been a go-to scorer for the Irish this season, and he showcased his dominance once again in the win over Tech. The 6-foot-5 sophomore's 37 points were his second time this season with 30 or more points, and he's now averaging 21 points in the last six games. He should continue to be a problem for other teams moving forward, and he'll look to keep his momentum going at Pitt next Saturday.

Eric Chatfield Jr. - Records two steals in start Chatfield finished Saturday's 89-74 loss to Notre Dame with six points (2-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt), two rebounds, four assists and two steals in 23 minutes.

Impact Chatfield got his first start of the season in the Jackets' double-figure loss, and he logged a solid showing. The freshman guard's six points were his second-best point total of the year, and he also recorded two steals. It's unknown if Chatfield will continue to start moving forward, but his showing did appear to be enough to do so.

Cole Certa - Available vs. GT Certa (undisclosed) is available for Saturday's game against Georgia Tech.

Impact Considering that Certa's previous status was probable for Saturday, his updated availability against Georgia Tech should not be so surprising, though the earlier update reasonably raised some concern. He has become a regular starter in conference action and has rewarded the decision by averaging 17.8 points across his last five games. What makes Certa's scoring outstanding is that most of it has come from three-pointers, with the five-game span including 4.0 3PM on a 37.0 percent clip.

FEBRUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Jalen Haralson - Out vs. GT Haralson (ankle) is out for Saturday's game against Georgia Tech.

Impact For only the second time this season, Haralson will sit out a game, due to a sprained ankle per Tom Noie of the South Bend Tribune. The freshman has logged a relatively clean health bill this season, with his 24 games and 22 starts to prove it. He has proved to be a scoring dynamo in conference games, with 16.3 points per game on an efficient 52.9 field goal percentage, so losing him will be big in what is to be a matchup between injury-riddled teams. Haralson will have a week to recover before Notre Dame's subsequent game, currently scheduled for Feb. 21 at Pittsburgh.

Kowacie Reeves Jr. - Scores 18 points in return Reeves contributed 18 points (7-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 83-67 loss to Wake Forest.

Impact Reeves returned from a one-game absence to face the Demon Deacons, and he ended up posting a strong line despite the 16-point loss. Reeves should remain one of Georgia Tech's go-to scoring options as long as he's healthy. He's averaging 14.9 points, 3.5 boards and 1.0 assists per game in conference play.
