Fairfield and Rebounding


Fairfield has outrebounded the opposition in each of the first two games, and owns a +7.5 re- bounding margin. The team’s season average of 39.5 rebounds per game and the rebounding margin number both rank first among Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) teams. Ryan Olander leads the team with 7.5 re- bounds per game which is tied for fifth among all MAAC student-athletes.

Here's the thing. Ryan Olander is 7 feet. Derek Needham is 5'11''. Olander had one more rebound than the guard in the Rutgers game. Needham is your second leading rebounder. With a team with strong freshmen, Hawkins, Nero, and Olander who would have thought Needham would be your second leading rebounder?
