In a win versus Wagner on Monday, the Thurles, Ireland product recorded a team-high 19 points, including four three-pointers, four rebounds, two steals, one assist and one block. Dwyer also registered 12 points, in the Hawks’ win over St. Francis (NY) on Thursday, while hitting 2-of-2 from three-point land and adding a team-best eight rebounds, four assists and two steals. The junior also posted a game-high 25 points, eight rebounds, four steals and three assists in a key win over Quinnipiac, leading Monmouth to its first-ever 9-0 NEC home record. For the season, Dwyer ranks third in the NEC in scoring (17.2 ppg), third in steals (2.56 spg) and first in three-pointers made (59).
