The Mustangs set new program single season records for total points, three-pointers and field goals while scoring 90-plus points 11 times.

Those attributes help him build great relationships and be impactful in our player’s lives on a daily basis.” With DeGeorge at Colorado Mesa during their final 2023-24 season, Andrews helped the Mavericks finish 29-5 overall and capture the Rocky Mountain Athletic Confer
