Rubit averaged 20.0 points and 13.0 rebounds over two games last week.  He set a new career high with 19 rebounds -- the most by a player in the Sun Belt Conference this season -- in South Alabama’s 68-66 win over Troy Saturday and scored 18 points, including the game-winner with 1.8 seconds left in the contest; he also set a new personal best against Troy with five blocks, all in the second half.  Against UALR on Thursday, Rubit collected 22 points and seven rebounds to lead the team in both categories, recording his highest point total in Sun Belt play and the most he has scored since setting a new career high with 31 points against Alcorn State on Dec. 11.  For the week, he shot 59.1 percent (13-22) from the floor.
