St. Bonaventure

The GoBonnies.com Male Athlete of the Week presented by CPL for the week ending Jan. 1 is men’s basketball redshirt junior Daryl Banks III.

Banks III dropped 31 points in last Saturday’s victory over UMass.

He powered the Bonnies to a win in their conference-opener by connecting on 9 of 17 field goal attempts, including six from beyond the arc. He also went 7-for-7 at the foul line and had two steals.

It is Banks’ second 30-point performance this season, making him the first Bonnies player to record multiple 30-point games in the same year since Jaylen Adams in 2017-18.

For the season, the Somerset, N.J. native leads the Bonnies and ranks ninth among all Atlantic 10 players with 16.7 points per game.
