Terry, who earlier this week was named to the Bevo Francis watch list, is having a monster season for the Railsplitters. The 6-foot-9 big man is averaging 18.6 points and 10.7 rebounds per game. Fresh off an upset of No. 1 Queens (NC) that sent the Top 25 into a frenzy, Terry threw down his two most impressive points of the season.
Lincoln Memorial set up a simple in bounds play under the basket. Terry cut to the hoop, and in superhero form, flew over the defender and threw the perfectly placed lob pass through the rim.
