Comer FT shooting leads Cougars

Kegan Comer hit the 20-point mark three times during his freshman season. He’s already done it twice this year.
The 2013 Jay County High School graduate was perfect from the foul line Tuesday as he scored 21 points for the second straight game in a 79-59 victory over Indiana Tech.
Comer, who shot 83 percent from the line last season, nailed all of his 15 attempts against the Warriors. He also had a team-high four assists while adding four rebounds, two steals and a block as the NAIA No. 15 Cougars improved to 3-0.
The sophomore was on fire from the field in the first two games of the season as he shot 7-of-11 with two 3-pointers Saturday on the way to his 21-point effort. He also had five assists, four rebounds, two blocks and a steal as USF blasted Great Lakes Christian 117-58.
In Friday’s opener he was 5-of-7 from the field and hit both of his 3-point tries. He totaled 14 points, three assists, one rebound and one steal in just 16 minutes in a 113-65 win over Ohio Midwestern.
Scott Schwieterman, Comer’s former classmate, transferred to Indiana Tech this year after playing his freshman season at Anderson. He did not play Tuesday because of an injury.
