The Cassell Coliseum was lighted the moment Pedulla opened the scoring for the home team by banging a breathtaking three.

Following this, he jacked up 4 more threes and was well on his way to registering another career-high number. Eventually, he finished the night with 32 points along with 7 assists and 4 rebounds.
Seemingly, Sean Pedulla divided his spectacular performance perfectly in both halves. He ended the opening 20 minutes with 16 points in his bag. Further, with over 11 minutes left on the clock, he scored his 27th point for the night which took him beyond his previous best.
