T-Rob, Jeff Withey lead KU against Long Beach State

By Staff     Dec 7, 2011

**1. Thomas Robinson:** Scored 18 of his 26 points in the first half and picked up 11 rebounds, a blocked shot and a steal. They gave him the outside shot and he hit it. Made his first eight field-goal attempts. Cooled down in the second half.

**2. Jeff Withey:** Toughed his way to 13 points, 13 rebounds and nine blocked shots, a near triple-double. His shot-blocking impacts the game greatly.

**3. Conner Teahan:** Scored 12 of his 14 points in the first 10:27 of the game, but did plenty else the rest of the way. Had two huge offensive boards on the same possession with less than three minutes left.

**4. Tyshawn Taylor:** Suffered a knee injury in practice Monday and came off the bench to play 34 minutes with a sleeve over a knee brace. Had four of his five turnovers and none of his four assists in a rough second half.

**5. Travis Releford:** Didn’t showcase the greatest shot selection on a 10-point, four-turnover night.

**6. Justin Wesley:** Contributed two points, two rebounds and a blocked shot in nine minutes.

**7. Elijah Johnson:** Fouled out with 5:37 left and it might not have been such a bad thing, given his performance merited just five second-half minutes.

**8. Kevin Young:** Scored five points in six minutes, but also gave up four easy points to get the quick hook.
