Alex Foster

Alex Foster

Senior Alex Foster came through with his second straight and sixth double-double of the season in helping the No. 6-ranked Emory men's basketball team open University Athletic Association play with a victory at Rochester.

The 6-foot-8 Foster totaled game-highs with 34 points and 13 rebounds in leading the Eagles to an 84-69 decision over the Yellowjackets, raising the team's overall record to 11-1.   Foster, who rang up 26 second-half points in helping Emory to a 46-32 scoring advantage, finished out the game sinking a career-high tying 15-of-28 from the floor, including four-of-eight from three-point range, en route to his 12th double-figure scoring performance of the year, his 10th or 20 or more points and third of 30-plus points.  His field goal total tied the fourth-highest individual game total in program history. It was the 11th time this year that he had either led or shared for team scoring honors.  His rebound total in the Rochester game  was his sixth double-figure outing of the campaign and the eighth time he paced the squad in that department.  

Through games played Jan. 10, Foster tops the UAA in scoring with a 24.6 per-game scoring average and is eighth in both field goal percentage (.500, 107-of-214) and three-point percentage (.425, 37-of-87).
