\n\tGetting things started on the evening was Fraser Roxburgh<\/a>, who kept the opening Jasper possession alive with a offensive carom after a missed jumper from Marko Ljubicic<\/a>. Devin Dinkins<\/a> found Erik Oliver-Bush<\/a> to open the scoring for the Green and White.
\n\tWhile trailing by four, Anthony Isaac<\/a> found a lane to cut Fairfield’s lead to just one possession.
\n\tIn the first eight minutes, redshirt senior guard Brett Rumpel<\/a> made his long-awaited return to competition for the first time in nearly two seasons.
\n\tCutting the deficit down a bit more were the Jaspers, with the assistance of freshman guard Quron Elliott<\/a>, who tallied his first jumper of the evening.
\n\tThe Stags would go on an 18-1 run to log a double-digit lead heading into the locker room at the end of the first half.
\n\tOut of halftime, the Jaspers responded rather quickly with back-to-back baskets from Isaac and Roxburgh, before the Australian native added an additional two from the charity stripe to capture the first six of seven points in the second stanza.
\n\tTwo minutes later, it was Elliott again to continue adding to his individual resume, before knocking down a much needed three-pointer.

\n\tJunior guard Jaden Winston<\/a> paced the Green and White with 15 points on five-of-nine shooting from the floor. The junior logged one three-pointer in four attempts, while converting four-of-six from the charity stripe, grabbed three rebounds, and assisted on two baskets in 30 minutes on the floor.
\n\tFreshman guard Quron Elliott<\/a> posted a career high 12 points on three made field goals in five tries and sank home a perfect five free throws in as many attempts in 16 minutes off the bench.
\n\tJunior forward Anthony Isaac<\/a> logged seven points and grabbed five rebounds in 27 minutes of game time.
\n\tRedshirt senior guard Brett Rumpel<\/a> made his return to the floor with 10 minutes logged on the evening.
