CO-PLAYERS OF THE WEEK
Columbia sophomore guard Noruwa Agho averaged 26.5 points in two Columbia road wins this week, including a career-high 30 points in the Lions' win at Wagner on Tuesday. Agho added a game-high 23 points in Columbia's win Saturday at Bryant. Agho continued his great start to the season, shooting 71.4 percent (20-of-28) from the field in the two games, and 66.7 percent (6-of-9) from three-point range as he remained the nation's top three-point shooter at 64.4 percent from beyond the arc. In the win at Wagner, Agho made 11-of-16 from the field, and four of six from three-point range and all four of his free throws. He added a season-best four assists and made two steals. In Saturday's 69-57 win at Bryant, Agho scored 15 of his 23 points in the second half, helping the Lions pull away after Columbia led by three at halftime. Agho added two more steals in the Bryant game and now has a team-best 13 steals this season.

Harvard senior guard Jeremy Lin (Palo Alto, Calif.) guided the Crimson to its second-straight win at Boston College, 74-67, with a game-high 25 points on 7-of-10 shooting from the floor and 10-for-12 from the free throw line while also adding four assists.
