Evans may feature two transfers on the perimeter, but coach Kevin Kenny's team wasted no time finding chemistry in its first week of action as the Knights improved to 3-0 with a 60-52 win at home in Saturday's tip-off tournament.
Pure shooters like Chris Stone, the senior transfer who led Evans with 16 points, including 5 three pointers, need the ball in rhythm. Sophomore Serron Spann, who earned valuable playing time as a freshman, found Stone with an on time and on target pass as he spotted up on the left wing for a three that extended Evans's lead to 44-34.
