DAVIDSON, N.C. – Davidson will conclude its brief homestand Tuesday evening when the Wildcats welcome in-state foe Campbell to John M. Belk Arena for a 7 p.m. televised (TWC SportsChannel) contest.
Â
Last Time Out
Tyler Kalinoski paced five Davidson players in double figures with 19 points, including five of his club's 15 3-pointers, as the Wildcats cruised past Catholic, 102-66, in their season opener Saturday.
Â
Oskar Michelsen scored 18 in his collegiate debut, going 6-for-7 from long range, Jack Gibbs added 17 points and seven assists, while Nathan Ekwu and Jordan Barham came off the bench to score 10 each.
Â
Davidson got 51 points from its reserves and held a commanding 43-28 advantage on the glass, highlighted by a game-high 11 boards from freshman Peyton Aldridge.
The Wildcats went on a 20-2 run midway through the opening period and stretched its advantage to 29 before going to the break up, 47-23. During its game-changing spurt, Davidson held Catholic without a field goal for 11 minutes and 44 seconds.
Â
With the win, Davidson improved to 70-32 all-time in openers.
Â
Series History
Campbell leads the all-time series, 6-3.
The two teams haven't met since the quarterfinals of the 1992 Big South Tournament, a game the Camels won 69-60. The following season, Davidson returned to the Southern Conference.
The Wildcats won three of the five meetings as conference foes, including the last two played at Belk Arena.
Â
Scouting the Camels
Under the direction of second-year head coach Kevin McGeehan, Campbell opened its season with a 97-58 win over Barber Scotia Friday evening.
Â
The Camels return four of the team's top-five scorers from last year's club that finished 12-20 overall and 6-10 in Big South play.
Â
Campbell was predicted to finish eighth in the Big South preseason poll.
Â
Reco McCarter led CU a year ago in scoring and rebounding averaging 12.7 points and 5.1 rebounds, respectively.
Â
Local Product Signs During Early Period
KiShawn Pritchett of nearby Lake Norman High School has signed a National Letter of Intent to join the Davidson men's basketball team in 2015-16.
A 6-6, 220 guard from Mooresville, N.C., Pritchett averaged 17.9 points, 8.7 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 2.0 blocks and 2.0 steals per game, while leading LNHS to a 28-2 record and berth in the N.C. 4A championship game a year ago.
Up Next
For the third straight season (Duke, 2012-13; Virginia 2013-14) Davidson will host a nationally-ranked/ACC opponent at Time Warner Cable Arena when No. 6/6 North Carolina visits the Queen City for a 2 p.m. tip Saturday.
