Watch out! Condon's Gators are on the 'March'

• Joshua Dent logged 40 minutes as Saint Mary’s primary ball-handler
• James Dyson-Merwe exceeded season rebounding average in overtime loss

🇦🇺 #19 Florida Gators 96, Oklahoma Sooners 79 (Final)

Junior forward Alex Condon, from Perth, Western Australia, played a central two-way role in Florida’s road win, logging 33 minutes as part of the Gators’ primary frontcourt rotation. Operating as a mobile interior forward, Condon balanced scoring efficiency with secondary playmaking responsibility, staying within his offensive role while contributing above-average ball movement for a big. His rebounding output sat slightly below his season norm, but he compensated with defensive activity around the rim and in passing lanes, reflecting Florida’s emphasis on collective defensive pressure and transition control in a wire-to-wire performance.

Senior forward Achor Achor, from Melbourne, Victoria, played a limited-rotation role in Mississippi State’s home loss, logging 16 minutes as the Bulldogs adjusted frontcourt usage against Alabama’s pace and physicality.

🇦🇺 Toledo Rockets 101, Ohio Bobcats 85 (Final)

Freshman forward Kiir Kuany, from Melbourne, Victoria, saw limited rotation minutes in Ohio’s road loss, logging 12 minutes as the Bobcats cycled through frontcourt options against Toledo’s tempo and scoring depth. Used primarily as a low-usage floor spacer, Kuany stayed within role offensively, converting his lone field goal attempt from both the field and the perimeter, while his rebounding and playmaking involvement aligned with his season averages in a short stint. Defensively, his minutes reflected situational deployment rather than sustained matchup responsibility as Ohio struggled to contain Toledo across four quarters.

🇦🇺 Saint Mary’s Gaels 82, San Francisco Dons 68 (Final)

Sophomore guard Joshua Dent, from Wollongong, New South Wales, carried a heavy on-ball workload in Saint Mary’s road win, playing all 40 minutes as the Gaels’ primary organiser and late-clock decision-maker. Operating as a downhill guard within Saint Mary’s structured offence, Dent scored above his season average while maintaining efficiency and controlling tempo, pairing his scoring with elevated playmaking responsibility and consistent point-of-attack defence. Senior centre Harry Wessels, from Boddington, Western Australia, was used sparingly in a situational interior role, logging six minutes as a physical screen-setter and rebounder, with his involvement aligned to matchup needs rather than sustained rotation minutes in a game Saint Mary’s controlled through guard play and defensive discipline.
