For Drexel, three players have picked up eight points in the first half. Frantz Massenat, Damion Lee, and Chris Fouch all picked up eight points, Fouch off the bench. The dragons shot nearly 60 percent from the three-point line, which is an area the Knights will need to defend if they want to get back into the game.
