• Eastern Illinois first two opponents this season have been able to use rebounding to their advantage with a 41-9 second chance points margin. Those points have come as EIU is one of five teams in the nation with a negative 20 or higher rebounding margin. The Panthers closed the gap on Monday against Ball State pulling down 32 rebounds after being limited to 17 rebounds in the season opener at Indiana. • Eastern Illinois had two players score 20 or more points on Monday at Ball State as A.J. Riley scored 21 and Trae Anderson finished with 20. The last time EIU had two players with 20 or more points was in the OVC Tournament opening round as Chris Olivier and Cornell Johnston both had over 20 points to lead the Panthers over SIU Edwardsville last March. • Eastern Illinois has started two freshmen this season in the games at Indiana and Ball State. Patrick Muldoon and Casey Teson have both earned the starts for EIU. Muldoon scored four points in both games while pulling down five rebounds at Ball State.

EIU has six freshmen players on its roster. • Trae Anderson scored 20 points on Monday at Ball State to give the senior wing his 23rd career double figure scoring game. Anderson has now scored in double figures in eight straight games dating back to last season.

Johnston was third in the OVC in assists per game last season at 4.7 per contest. • Eastern Illinois picked up its first block of the season on Monday at Ball State as Trae Anderson swatted away two shots. Last season EIU was second in the OVC with 4.3 blocks per game. Senior Luke Piotrowski is 11th on the EIU career list with 57 blocks.

• Eastern Illinois first two opponents this season have been able to use rebounding to their advantage with a 41-9 second chance points margin. Those points have come as EIU is one of five teams in the nation with a negative 20 or higher rebounding margin. The Panthers closed the gap on Monday against Ball State pulling down 32 rebounds after being limited to 17 rebounds in the season opener at Indiana. • Eastern Illinois had two players score 20 or more points on Monday at Ball State as A.J. Riley scored 21 and Trae Anderson finished with 20. The last time EIU had two players with 20 or more points was in the OVC Tournament opening round as Chris Olivier and Cornell Johnston both had over 20 points to lead the Panthers over SIU Edwardsville last March. • Eastern Illinois has started two freshmen this season in the games at Indiana and Ball State. Patrick Muldoon and Casey Teson have both earned the starts for EIU. Muldoon scored four points in both games while pulling down five rebounds at Ball State. Teson knocked down a pair of 3-pointers at Indiana but was held scoreless at Ball State. EIU has six freshmen players on its roster. • Trae Anderson scored 20 points on Monday at Ball State to give the senior wing his 23rd career double figure scoring game. Anderson has now scored in double figures in eight straight games dating back to last season. It was his fourth career 20-point game. • Guard Cornell Johnston had four assists on Monday against Ball State after two assists in the opener at Indiana. Johnston set the school freshman record for assists last season with 156 which also ranked sixth on the EIU single season assist list. Johnston was third in the OVC in assists per game last season at 4.7 per contest. • Eastern Illinois picked up its first block of the season on Monday at Ball State as Trae Anderson swatted away two shots. Last season EIU was second in the OVC with 4.3 blocks per game. Senior Luke Piotrowski is 11th on the EIU career list with 57 blocks. ONE OF THE NEWEST ROSTERS IN THE NCAA Eastern Illinois opened the season with one of the newest rosters in the NCAA. The Panthers are tied for seventh in the nation with the most newcomers on the roster entering year. EIU has nine new faces with six freshmen, two junior college transfers and one four-year transfer. Portland State, Tennessee State and Bradley lead the nation with 11 newcomers on their rosters for this season. PANTHERS SIGN KANSAS ALL-STATE GUARD Eastern Illinois men’s basketball signed one player during the early signing period last Wednesday with Kansas All-State guard Logan Koch. Koch averaged 14.3 points, 5.4 rebounds and 6.1 assists last year at Mill Valley HS in Shawnee, Kan.
