Wildcat Scratches
• Davidson enters 8-3 following a 67-63 setback at Wake Forest Monday evening.
• The Wildcats are coming off back-to-back losses for the first time since the 2017 Diamond Head Classic in Honolulu, Hawai'i.
• This marks the first-ever meeting between Davidson and Central Penn, which competes in the United States Collegiate Athletic Association (USCAA).
• Redshirt freshman Luke Frampton was named A-10 Rookie of the Week on Monday.
• Preseason all-conference selections Kellan Grady and Jon Axel Gudmundsson continue to lead Davidson in scoring, averaging 19.4 and 18.8 points, respectively.
• Coming off a career night and his second double-double (19 pts, 14 rebs), freshman Luka Brajkovic is also averaging double figures for the 'Cats at 12.0 per game, while leading the way in rebounding (6.4).
• Davidson is 58-0 all-time against non-Division I opponents under head coach Bob McKillop.
Â
Last Time Out
• Forward Luka Brajkovic had a double-double and guard Jon Axel Gudmundsson scored a game-high 21 points to lead Davidson in a 67-63 loss to Wake Forest in Joel Coliseum Monday night.
• Both scored buckets to help Davidson trim a nine-point halftime deficit to three early in the second half, but the Wildcats could get no closer in the teams' first meeting in 19 seasons.
• Brajkovic, a freshman from Austria, finished with season-highs of 19 points and 14 boards for his second career double-double (17 points, 11 rebounds vs. Northeastern on Nov. 18), while Gudmundsson scored at least 20 points for the sixth time this year.
• The Deacons shot 70 percent (7-of-10) from 3-point range in the first 20 minutes to build a 33-24 lead at the break and led 27-13 with 8:40 left in the first half after a 9-0 run.
• Davidson opened the second half with three straight buckets – completing an 8-0 run that began in the first half – to pull within 33-30, but Wake Forest answered with a 7-0 run. Davidson got within four, 50-46, at the 7:01 mark, but again the Deacons answered, this time with a 6-0 spurt. A Brajkovic layup with three seconds left again cut it to four and finalized the scoring.

Up Next
• Davidson will enjoy a week break for the Christmas Holiday before traveling to Chapel Hill to face No. 9/10 North Carolina at noon on Dec. 29.
