Saint Mary's wins 80-49 over North Texas

Liam Campbell - Drops 20 off bench Campbell had 20 points (8-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal in 21 minutes during Tuesday's 90-60 win over Ohio.

Impact It was a breakout game for the freshman, who only played nine and 10 minutes, respectively, in the Gaels' first two games of the season. If Campbell can continue to prove himself as a scorer, he should be able to stay in the rotation.

NOVEMBER 12 • ROTOWIRE

Harry Wessels - Scores five points in win Wessels (foot) ended Tuesday's 90-60 win over Ohio with five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one block in nine minutes.

Impact St. Mary's cruised to an easy win in this contest, and Wessels was able to leave his mark off the bench even if he didn't play much. He should remain an option off the bench going forward.

Harry Wessels - Questionable Tuesday Wessels (foot) is questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against Ohio, Steve Kroner of SMCGaels.com reports.

Impact Wessels, who sat out against Chattanooga last Friday, remains questionable for the Gaels ahead of Tuesday's matchup with the Bobcats. The 7-foot-1 senior started in St. Mary's opener, logging two points and six rebounds across 21 minutes of action.

NOVEMBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Harry Wessels - No action Friday Wessels (undisclosed) did not take the court in Friday's 87-66 victory over Chattanooga.

Impact Wessels, as expected, started the season opener against St. Thomas and logged two points (1-2 FG) and six rebounds across 21 minutes of action. He did appear to suffer a lower-body injury in the second half of that contest and was even checked out by team medical staff, but Wessels was able to check back into the game, leading many to speculate any injury wasn't a long-term concern. Wessels then proceeded to miss the very next game, however, so his status is a bit cloudy heading into Tuesday's matchup against Ohio. Given the team didn't provide any update regarding Friday's absence, it wouldn't be surprising to hear crickets again on that front, though his presence/absence in the starting lineup might be telling.

Mikey Lewis - Strong opener Lewis contributed 23 points (7-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 24 minutes during Monday's 84-58 victory over St. Thomas (MN).

Impact The sophomore didn't start a game as a freshman last year, coming off the bench and playing 16 minutes per contest. Monday night, though, he started, played 24 minutes and led the Gaels in scoring and shot attempts. Lewis appears to have stepped into a larger role in 2025-26.
