Tommy Eastman, the grad transfer from Middlebury, leading Brandeis with a 20 point game for the Judges on his first game back from injury.

On another note, congrats to Tommy Eastman on joining the 1,000 point club and scoring his 1,000th college career point wearing a Brandeis jersey.  (Most of his college points were scored in SUNY Geneseo and Middlebury uniforms.)  Tommy Eastman accomplished the feat with a 3 pointer with 16:38 left in regulation at the Ratner Center.

If he stays healthy the rest of the way Eastman will likely be all conference in three different D3 leagues. Has they ever been done before?

it seems, nescac1, that you posted the same question back on the NESCAC boards when Tommy Eastman announced his transfer to Brandeis.

To be honest, I don't know of any men's college basketball player in any division who made all conference in 3 different college basketball conferences before.  It takes 2 transfers for that scenario to potentially happen, and usually if a player transfers to a D1 team, that player cannot play for a full season after the transfer.

Brandeis and Wash U now warming up, and Jaybird44 has just started the pregame show...

Today's Brandeis at Wash U men's game is being played to commemorate United Nations International Holocaust Remembrance Day, which falls on January 27, 2022 this year.

International Holocaust Remembrance Day commemorates the anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz and Birkenau death camps by the Allies on January 27, 1945.

The State of Israel has its own Holocaust Memorial Day called Yom Hashoah.  This occurs on the Hebrew date of the 27th of Nisan every year-- the day that the Warsaw Ghetto uprising started in 1943.
