J-Rod Being J-Rod

Stop me if you've heard this before.

Campbell's Jonathan Rodriguez posted the individual performance of the season so far in a 97-92 loss to VMI last night. Rodriguez posted 23 points and 14 rebounds en route to the A-Sun's first PEG score of 30 so far this year. VMI, as they did against Kentucky last week, raced out to a big first-half lead, then ran out of gas as Campbell crept closer. The lead was down to one with under a minute left, but the Keydets hit their free throws late to put the game away. Credit the Camels for playing a disciplined game, launching only 11 3-point attempts in an 82-possession game. Of course, 23 turnovers are more than you would want to see, even in a game as frenetic as this one was.

Tonight, Belmont visits Pittsburgh.
