Cannon guided the Terriers to back-to-back wins by averaging 23.5 points and 9.0 rebounds, an effort that earned him a share of the Choice Hotels/NEC Player of the Week award. In a win over NJIT on Sunday, the 6-6 forward recorded his fifth double double of the season with 23 points and 12 boards as SFC prevailed 89-87 after a layup by Akeem Johnson broke a tie with just five seconds remaining.  Earlier in the week he scored a career-high 24 points against Colgate at home. During the two-game span he shot 60.7 percent from the field and 80 percent from the charity stripe. Cannon, an NEC All-Rookie selection a year ago, leads the NEC in rebounding (9.5), field goal percentage (.636) and double-doubles (five), and ranks fourth in scoring (17.2).
