THE BLUE DEVILS IN 2018-19

• The Blue Devils are averaging 81.9 points per game and giving up 81.6. Stout last year finished the season averaging 69.6 points and gave up 74.9.
• After missing all except two minutes of last season due to injury, John Keefe eased into the first games of the season, but has been on a tear since then. Keefe scored 12 and 7 points, respectively in the first two games, but has scored in double digits in nine of 10 games played. Keefe is averaging a conference-leading 22.0 points per game. Keefe us second in the WIAC in 3-pointers made with 3.4 per outing. Keefe hit a career-best 33 points in an overtime loss to McMurry University. Keefe currently has 1115 career points, and is 17th on the UW-Stout all-time scoring list.
• Zach Dahl overcame a cold start to the season from the floor. The senior captain did not hit a shot from the floor in the first two games, scoring only two points from the free throw line, which may have been an early season precursor. But Dahl has steadily increased his scoring totals and is now averaging 8.3 points per game and is among the team leaders in rebounds, averaging 4.3 per game. Back at the free throw line, Dahl has been steady, hitting 25 of 29 attempts (.862), but not attempt a free throw in the conference opener.
• Sophomore captain Jon Ciriacks played the first two games of the season, then missed the next five games before returning against Crown College, Dec. 7. Now, Ciriacks is averaging 15.3 points and 8.0 rebounds. During his freshman season, Ciriacks averaged 4.2 points and 2.2 rebounds.
• Sophomore Luke Geiger exceeded his entire freshman season scoring totals during the Blue Devils' season-opening overtime win over Lawrence. Geiger last season had 11 points for the entire season, but finished the game with 15 points. Geiger is currently third on the team in scoring, averaging 11.6 points, 21st in the WIAC. Geiger eight times this season has scored in double digits, scoring a career-best 21 points against Northland College..
• Sophomore transfer Brandon Gilbertson has made five starts and is averaging 4.6 points. He had a season-best 10 points against McMurry in his first start.
• Junior transfer Kyle Williams has come off the bench to average 5.4 points, but has made his mark  with steals, recording seven against Bethany Lutheran, and now has 16 steals, averaging 1.6 per contest to rank fifth in the WIAC. With 33 assists, good for eighth in the WIAC, Williams is second in the league in assist to turnover ratio. Williams, who comes off the bench, currently has a team-best 33 assists to 10 turnovers for a ratio of 3.30.
• The 96 points scored against Silver Lake is the most since scoring scoring 109 against Crown College in February, 2011. Stout scored 94 against Silver Lake College last December.

During the 2016-17 season, Keefe scored in double figures in 19 of 26 games, and scored a career-high 32 against former WIAC foe UW-Superior in November. Keefe dished off at least two assists in every game and had four or more assists in 16 games. Keefe led Stout in all major categories, including points per game (15.0), rebounds/game (6.2), assists/game (4.6), steals/game (1.5), and minutes/game (35.5).

BLUE DEVILS LAST TIME OUT

• UW-La Crosse used a 22-7 run to start the game as the Eagles never trailed in a 92-72 conference-opening win over UW-Stout Wednesday night in Mitchell Hall.  After La Crosse (8-4, 1-0 WIAC) took a 59-37 lead with 15:09 remaining, Stout (6-6, 0-1 WIAC) scored seven unanswered points, three by John Keefe and two apiece by Jon Ciriacks and Josh Mericle, to pull with in 59-44 with 13:46 on the clock.The Eagles answered back with a five point run and Stout could not get any closer than 16 points the rest of the way.  Stout finished the game shooting 26-of-62 (41.9%) from the floor including seven-of-19 (36.8%) from behind the three-point line and 13-of-19 (68.4%) from the free throw line.  John Keefe led the Blue Devils with 14 points while D'Marcco Patrick and Luke Geiger each added 13 points.
• UW-Stout played their final non-conference game of the season, and came up just short to Cardinal Stritch University, an 80-77 contest Saturday on Dewey Mintz Court in Johnson Fieldhouse. While the Blue Devils (6-5) led early in the contest, Cardinal Stritch (10-5) held a 42-35 halftime lead. The Blue Devils rebounded coming out of the locker room and took a one point, 48-47, lead six minutes into the second half by running off a 13-5 run, capped off by John Keefe's bucket for what would prove to be a short lived lead. The Wolves captured the lead back on their next possession and never trailed again, building up a double-digit lead. But Stout cut into that lead and got as close to two points twice in the last 30 seconds of the contest. Jon Ciriacks got Stout to within 79-77 with six seconds left. After the Wolves made one of two free throws, Keefe's 3-pointer at the buzzer just missed. Ciriacks led Stout with 20 points. Keefe finished with 17, Zach Dahl 14 and D'Marcco Patrick 10.
