Hamilton, who has emerged as Monmouth’s go-to offensive player this season, comes off a pair of stellar efforts last week as Monmouth improved to a perfect 4-0 in league play with victories over St. Francis (NY) and St. Francis (PA). Hamilton averaged 20.7 points, 5.3 rebounds and shot 55.6 percent (20-36) from the floor and 91.3 percent (21-23) from the free throw line. Saddled with foul trouble, he tallied just seven points in 18 minutes in a 78-75 overtime loss at Rutgers on Tuesday, but bounced back in a big way with a career-high 29 points and six rebounds in a 72-69 triumph at St. Francis (NY) on Thursday. Hamilton, who hit 9-17 shots from the field and was 10-12 from the charity stripe, scored 22 of the Hawks’ final 35 points of the game, including 10 of the last 11. Two days later, the Harrisburg, PA native logged 26 points and six boards as Monmouth downed St. Francis (PA), 74-64, in West Long Branch. He shot 8-11 from the floor and was a perfect 10-10 from the line. Hamilton currently ranks seventh in the NEC in scoring (16.6 ppg) and 12th in rebounding (6.3 rpg).
