Dwayne Cohill Named Horizon League Player of the Week
« on: December 15, 2021, 08:25:14 AM »
Cohill averaged 19 points and 6.5 rebounds as the Penguins picked up a pair of impressive home wins during the week. He scored 38 points and grabbed 13 rebounds in the two games and was a plus-32 on the court. He was 15-of-25 from the field (60 percent), 3-of-4 on 3-point attempts (75 percent) and was 5-of-5 on free-throw attempts.
 
In an 84-77 win over Central Michigan, he scored 20 points on 8-of-14 shooting in the contest and was plus-nine while on the court. It was YSU's first win over a MAC program since November 2016. In a big 71-43 victory over Canisius, he had his first career double-double scoring 18 points and grabbing 11 rebounds in only 19 minutes. He was 7-of-11 from the field against the Golden Griffins and YSU was plus-22 in scoring during his 19 minutes. It was YSU's first win over Canisius in school history after dropping the first six contests. It was the fewest points scored by an opponent against Youngstown State since Fredonia State had 35 on Dec. 6, 2011 and the least against a Division I program since January 2000.
 
The Penguins return to action on Saturday when they take a four-game winning streak into a home contest against Westminster. Tipoff at the Beeghly Center is set for Noon.
