Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµâ€™s Joseph Breaks Season Record in 10 Games

Jackson, Tenn. - 12/3/2001 - Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ University center, Robert Joseph has broken the school record for blocks in a season. He has an amazing 86 blocks through the first 10 games of the season. The previous record of 75 was set last season by NAIA All-American Anthony Brooks. Joseph tied the record on Friday against Talladega College and then passed the record in game 10 of the season on Saturday.

Joseph, a native of Port-au-Prince, Haiti, is leading the Bulldogs in points, rebounds, blocks, and shooting percentage. Just shy of averaging a triple-double for the season, he has put up 23.8 points per game, 9.9 rebounds per game, and 8.6 blocks. Joseph is shooting .674 (91-135) from the field and has more than twice as many field goals made as the next Bulldog.

Looking ahead, Joseph is well above the pace to set the Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ record for blocks in a career. The current record of 250, also held by Anthony Brooks, was set during his four-year career that ended last season. At his current pace, Joseph would end a 35-game season with over 300 blocks. He must maintain a 6.8 average the remainder of the season to reach the 250 mark.
