Merritt finally healthy

Last Saturday's game versus Montana marked the first time this season that senior Brendon Merritt has found his three-point shot. Merritt was 5-7 from the field and 4-4 from the three-point line for a team high 17 points. Merritt entered the game almost 100 percent healthy for the first time this season. He has recently battled a bruised knee and a dislocated shoulder twice, which hasn't helped his game. He entered Saturday shooting only 41 percent from the field and a dreadful 21 percent from the three-point line. "I think he's pretty good right now. On Friday at practice was the best I've seen him move in a long time and I think it carried over into Saturday," said coach Ray Giacoletti.
