In Saturday's win over Valpo, Barr-Buday scored a career-high 16 points and pulled down four rebounds, shooting 7-for-8 from the floor in 11 minutes.

Against nationally ranked North Carolina, he put on a show in front of a national TV audience with 18 points in 31 minutes of action, adding six rebounds and two assists along with a block and a steal.
On Thanksgiving Day vs. East Carolina, he was key to a Bonnies win with 17 points and 12 boards and Sunday at Florida Atlantic he was clutch again in a victory as he produced 13 points and 11 rebounds for another double-double.
