The Dragons had won three of four and six of eight before last night’s 73-54 loss at VCU, a defeat that dropped Drexel into a tie with VCU for fifth place in the CAA. The Dragons got 20 points from junior guard Jamie Harris, who has coach Bruiser Flint’s vote for CAA player of the year, an award Harris is unlikely to win. And now, with just two league games to play after Saturday’s Bracket Buster game at Bradley, Drexel must play on without redshirt freshman guard Chris Fouch, who has a separated shoulder and could be out for the year. Fouch had recently been named the league’s rookie of the week and player of the week in the same week — the first Dragon to be so recognized. Drexel is now 15-13 overall, 10-6 CAA, and it likely needs to beat UNC-Wilmington and James Madison next week to be one of the four teams to earn a first-round bye at the CAA tournament.
