Furr Collects First Win in Men's Basketball Home Opener

INSIDE THE MATCHUP
Final: Barry 109, South Florida Bible 56
Records: Barry (1-2), SFBC (1-4)
All-Time Series: Barry leads 1-0

SUMMARY:

  • 1H - Barry jumped out to an early lead with the help of Ryan Van Eyck who had a fast break lay-in and then stamped on a dunk. SFBC was able to make their way back in it tying things up at 11-all. That is when the Bucs got hot going on a 12-0 run. Gui Tesch checked in for the first time as a Buccaneer and scored in his first three attempted shots draining a three, putting in two layups, and scoring on both his free throw attempts. Breno Silva came in and knocked down a dagger three to send the Buccaneers into the break with a 29 point lead. Every Buc that entered the court earned a point in the half. | Barry 57, SFBC 28
  • 2H - Novak Perovic scored the first bucket of the second half to give them a 30-point advantage. No matter who was on the floor, the buckets kept coming. Deon Perry and Sami Elkamel led the half with 11 and 13 points, respectively. Elkamel nearly had a double-double off the bench in the half with nine boards. Barry shot 60-percent from the field going 18-for-30. | Barry 109, SFBC 56

NOTEWORTHY:

  • Perry had a game-high 20 points and added four assists and two steals.
  • All starters were in double figures.
  • Marko Šarenac was a rebound short of a double-double with a season-high 16 points and nine.
  • Elkamel had his second career double-double, coming off the bench with 14 points and 10 rebounds.
  • Van Eyck's 14 assists are tied for 5th most in a single game in Barry history. It is the most since Elvar Fridriksson had in 2015 against Florida National.
  • Barry stuffed the staff sheet, with the most impressive stats being the 62-14 points in the paint and 21-1 fast break point advantages.

ON THE HORIZON:
Barry will head into Sunshine State Conference action on Saturday, hosting Eckerd at 4:00pm.
