Tonight’s game is bringing back a very fond memory for me from when these teams last meet at Rider in 2009. I was in attendance that night when Lehigh brought a skinny freshman with long arms in off the bench early in the first half. He instantly looked like the best player on the floor on either team. I had read a little about him, and wondered how Lehigh landed this kid, who was Ohio Player of the Year, at least according to Gatorade. He went on to have a very strong game, and establish himself as a player to be reckoned with for Lehigh. I left that night with a big smile, even though Lehigh lost the game. That was my introduction to CJ McCollum.
