This past weekend, Abernethy averaged 19.0 points per game and 5.0 rebounds per contests while shooting close to 50% from the floor (15-for-31). He had 14 points and five boards against Skidmore and then posted 24 points and five rebounds versus Hobart. 

For the season, Abernethy has three double-doubles and four 20-point games, including the fourth on Saturday against Hobart. Entering the final regular season weekend, Abernethy is tied for 12th in the Liberty League in scoring (14.3 ppg), is 12th in rebounding (5.8 rpg), and is tied for seventh in blocks per game (1.0 bpg).
