Anderson led the Colonials to a 1-1 record last week by averaging 19.0 points and 4.0 rebounds while shooting 63.6 percent from the floor, including 62.5 percent from beyond the arc. In his first career start in an RMU uniform, the junior transfer put on a show for the home crowd on Saturday with a career-high 28 points in an 84-76 victory over previously unbeaten Ohio, a team fresh off an NCAA Sweet 16 appearance  team and the 2012-13 MAC preseason favorite. Anderson couldn’t miss in the game as he hit all 10 of his shots against the Bobcats, including eight from long range. His three with 1:08 to play was a backbreaker that gave Colonials a seven-point cushion.  He became the first NEC player in the Stat Crew era (1997 to present) to convert eight trifectas without a miss in a game.  The 10-10 showing from the field and 8-8 effort from long range are also the top single-game performances in the nation this season. Earlier in the week on Monday, he knocked down 10 points and collected four boards in a setback at preseason MEAC favorite Savannah State. Overall, Anderson is averaging 12.0 points per game while shooting 46.7 percent from the field.  His 2.25 trifectas per game ranks ninth in the NEC, and his 40 percent shooting from beyond the arc is the 13th-best mark in the conference.
