Ubilla was unstoppable in capturing the second Choice Hotels NEC Player of the Week award of his career. He averaged 31.5 ppg, 5.5 rpg, 3.5 apg and 1.5 spg in the Knights’ 1-1 week. Ubilla shot 51.4 percent from the field and drained 13-24 shots (.542) from three-point range. The Freehold, NJ native began his week with a career-high 39-point effort in a 94-63 setback at #23 Rhode Island on Wednesday. The 39 points - which set a Ryan Center record, established an NEC single-game season-high and ranks fourth on FDU’s all-time single-game list - included a school record eight shots from beyond the arc. He also snared seven rebounds and dished for three assists. Three days later, Ubilla helped boost FDU to a 65-62 win at Mount St. Mary’s by tallying 24 points, four rebounds, four assists and three steals. He continued his torrid shooting by making 5-9 shots from three-point territory. After the Mount pulled to within one, Ubilla scored ten points in the final 3:31, including a pair of trifectas to clinch the victory. The senior guard leads the NEC with 20.5 ppg, and averages 5.2 rpg and 4.8 apg (sixth in the league). Ubilla also ranks second in the league in three-pointers per game (3.3) and third in three-point percentage (.455).
