Quiet in first round exit Nickel finished with nine points (3-8 FG, 3-8 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist across 34 minutes during Friday's 59-56 loss to Saint Mary's.

Impact Nickel only shot three-pointers against Saint Mary's, and was the most efficient Commodore to do it on a day where they collectively struggled. Still, had he hit just one more shot from distance, this three-point loss might've been a different story. It'll be interesting to see if Nickel, who's played for three programs in three seasons, elects to stay in Nashville for his senior year.
