Impact Harwell matched a season high with 24 minutes off the bench, hoisting up 12 shots from beyond the arc and connecting on four to reach double figures in scoring for the first time in six games as the Cougars cruised to their third conference victory in as many opportunities. Harwell, who was coming off a scoreless performance in just seven minutes against Texas Tech, has now topped 10 points twice this season while being held to three or fewer on eight separate occasions.

Last Night in College Basketball: Auburn Won at the Buzzer ... Until it Didn't

Emanuel Sharp - Bounces back with 17 Sharp ended Tuesday's 69-65 victory over Texas Tech with 17 points (5-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), one rebound, two assists and one steal across 39 minutes.

Impact Sharp was held to just two points on a miserable 0-for-9 shooting last Saturday at Cincinnati, but he bounced back here with his third double-digit effort in his last four games. While the production of backcourt mate Milos Uzan has stagnated a bit, Sharp, while inconsistent himself at times, as proven to be an excellent complementary scoring option to star freshman Kingston Flemings (16.1 ppg). Both are capable of carrying the scoring workload on any given evening.

Chris Cenac Jr. - Records third double double Cenac finished with 11 points (4-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 69-65 victory over Texas Tech.

Impact Cenac recorded his third double double of the season to help lead the Cougars to the close win over the rival Red Raiders. The freshman big man stepped up his game opposite Texas Tech's star forward JT Toppin, staying out of foul trouble and playing an important 31 minutes while recording his first double double in exactly one month. Cenac has started all 15 games for Houston this season and is averaging 9.1 points and 7.7 rebounds across 24.2 minutes per contest.

Joseph Tugler - First double double of season Tugler ended with 11 points (4-8 FG, 3-3 FT), 10 rebounds and two steals over 34 minutes during Tuesday's 69-65 victory over Texas Tech.

Impact Tugler corralled a season-high 10 boards to go along with 11 points for his first double double of the season. Seven of Tugler's 10 rebounds came on the offensive end as he saw 34 minutes of court time, setting a new season-best mark during the tight win. Tugler remains a defensive fiend but has not taken the big step forward on the offensive end that the Cougars had envisioned for this year. However, he is showing some signs as of late, averaging 10.7 points and 7.7 rebounds to go along with 2.3 steals and 1.0 blocks over his past three contests.
