Buckeye Honors

Even though it’s been a rough season for the Buckeyes, it’s still been one for the record books for the Junior duo of Deshaun Thomas and Aaron Craft. Both players played in their 100th career game as a Buckeye in last weeks’ victory against Northwestern.

In their 100 games on the court, the Buckeyes are a stellar 83-17 overall, with a 36-11 record in Big Ten play.

As far as individual success is concerned, both Craft and Thomas are making their way into the Big Ten and Ohio State record books, respectively.

Craft is currently 13 steals shy of moving to the Top 7 in all-time steals in Big Ten history. With 219 steals under his belt already, he is currently 8th behind Dee Brown (Illinois, 2003-2006).

With 6 more rebounds, Thomas will be the 24th player in Ohio State history to score 1,000 points and pull down 500 rebounds in a career as a Buckeye. With his 18 point performance last week against Wisconsin, Thomas also became the 18th player in Buckeye history to score 500 points in a season multiple times (2).
