Canisius
College freshman Alshwan Hymes will be out for approximately two weeks after undergoing
arthroscopic surgery on his left knee Wednesday.
The 6-foot-2
guard has played in 19 games this season where he is averaging 4.2 points and
2.1 rebounds per contest. He started five games this season for the Golden
Griffins and has scored a season-high nine points two different times, most
recently against Bowling Green Dec. 12.
Canisius is
currently 11-12 overall and 6-6 in the MAAC. The team will return to action
Friday, Feb. 5, when the team meets long-time rival Niagara on the road. That
game can be seen live on Time Warner SportsNet, with the live audio provided
through the Golden Griffin Broadcast Network.
