Second Half Run Propels Nighthawks To Victory Over Saints – An early second half run pulled Northwest Nazarene out of a halftime deficit to complete a comeback victory over the Saints 92-to-86 on Friday night.
 
The Saints (1-7) featured a three point attack with Alex Schumacher leading the way with 21 points in 26 minutes. Demonte Malloy and Ty Velasquez both came off the bench with 19 points, as the three combined for a majority of the Saints' points. Northwest Nazarene (9-1) defended their home court with a 27-to-7 run to open the second half, and fight off the Saints'.
 
Slow Start Dooms Saints In Road Loss - The Saint Martin's men's basketball team was unable to recover from its slowest start of the season on Saturday, and ultimately fell to Northwest Nazarene 71-53.
 
Northwest Nazarene (10-1) took the momentum and held it from the start of the game. Saint Martin's (1-8) went cold offensively and were unable to cut the first-half deficit, shooting 17 percent from the field in the first half, compared to NNU's 50 percent. The Nighthawks used this lead to carry them throughout the rest of the game.
 
Alex Schumacher Named GNAC Player of the Week – Schumacher, who is the leading scorer for the Saints, dropped a team-high 18 points, along with eight rebounds, four assists, and three steals in the Saints victory over Seattle Pacific. Playing in 36 minutes of action, Schumacher only committed two turnovers, and zero fouls.
 
Shifting In Top Gear – Alex Schumacher has turned it up to high gear during the year, highlighted by a career-high 29-point night against Northwest Nazarene. Coming into the week, Schumacher leads the team in scoring and is third in rebounding, and leads in steals, and assists. Not only has Schumacher elevated his stats, but also his shooting, raising his 3-point percentage by nearly double-digits, up from 28 to 37.8.
 
Careful With The Rock – The Saints have shown to be one of the best team's at the country at limiting turnovers. Entering the week, SMU's 11.0 turnovers per game ranks 21st lowest in the NCAA.
 
Get That Outta Here – Marky Adams has proven to be one of the most premier shot blockers in the country. On the year, Adams' 1.8 blocks per game ranks 15th in the NCAA. 
 
Explosive First Game – Tyke Thompson didn't waste any time making a name for himself in division-II, posting a double-double in the form of 20 points, 13 rebounds, along with two blocks against Seattle U.
 
Hot Off The Bench – Newcomer Ty Velasquez has quickly established himself as a top scoring option for the Saints. In the opening three games, Velasquez had scored a team's second-best 13.3 points per game on 42.4 percent shooting, and 41.2 percent beyond the arc. The senior transfer had been consistent in his efforts, scoring 12 against Seattle U, 15 and 13 against Seattle Pacific.
 
Double-Double Down Low – Saints' All-Conference center Marky Adams looks to improve upon his breakout 2019-20 campaign. The big man averaged 10.7 points per game and a conference second best 8.3 rebounds per game. On the year, Adams recorded nine double-doubles, and his 61 blocks were best in the conference, and 14th best in NCAA D-II.
 
Let It Fly From Deep – Last season, the Saints attempted 762 3-pointers, which ranked second best in the conference, and 57th in D-II.
