LAURINBURG, N.C. – EJ Bush (FR/Oak Ridge, Tenn.), the dynamic freshman guard for the Bryan College men's basketball team hailing from Oak Ridge, Tenn., is continually building a case for Appalachian Athletic Conference freshman of the year status as he completed a team-best fourth double-double of the season on Saturday in the Lion's 70-62 victory over St. Andrews University, marking the second time the Lions have topped the Knights this season. Bush, who went 6-of-12 in the game and 6-of-7 at the foul line, collected a team-high 18 points and secured 11 rebounds. In addition to his scoring ability where he is averaging 13.3 points per game, he's also leading Bryan in rebounds with an average of seven per game and owns the top shot-blocker role with 27 rejections so far this year. Nationally, Bush ranks No. 27 in field goal percentage (56.7), No. 32 in total blocks, No. 35 in blocks per game (1.28), and No. 40 in offensive rebounds per game (2.66).
