Freshman guard Brandon Young scored 16 points in DePaul's 83-58 loss to Notre Dame on Thursday. He also accounted for four assists and two rebounds, and classmate Cleveland Melvin grabbed 10 rebounds.
DePaul's struggled mightily for a few years now, and it will take some time for Oliver Purnell to build his program. But Young will be one of the players who make up the foundation, and he averages 11.9 points and 3.8 assists per game.
