Having hit his stride over the last month, Cranford, Jr. was at his efficient best last week, when he averaged 17.7 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.0 assists over a busy three-game stretch for the Red Flash. He was lights out, shooting a scorching 80.0 percent from the field and 68.8 percent from three-point territory. Cranford kicked off the week on Tuesday with a career-high 21 points on 8-11 shooting against a Maryland squad receiving votes in the top-25 poll. Two days later, he went a perfect 5-5 from the field and 3-3 from deep in SFU’s win over Franciscan. He capped the week on Saturday by drilling 5-7 from three-point range and 7-9 overall in a 19-point effort at Robert Morris. The Dayton, OH native has now scored in double figures in seven straight games, leading SFU with 14.7 ppg over that span to raise his season average to 9.8 ppg. He is the leading freshman scorer on the circuit.
