After failing to find a rhythm in the previous game, Cincinnati Bearcats guard CJ Fredrick totaled 19 points in a win over the Florida Gulf Coast Eagles!

Fredrick found a flow in the opening minutes and compiled 14 points in the first half before finishing 5/6 shooting from 3-point territory this afternoon.

It was yet another impressive performance from the Bearcats but there is still a lot of room to improve as non-conference play continues on next weekend.

With an opportunity to keep the unblemished record intact, Cincinnati came out with plenty of energy and eventually secured a seventh consecutive victory.
