Name: Elijah Strong
Position: Forward
Year: Sophomore
Number: 31
Height: 6’8”
Hometown: Charlotte, NC
Last Season: Strong had a solid Freshman campaign. He appeared in 19 games, making one start. In those 19 games, Strong averaged 3 PPG and shot just above 50% from the field. Strong backed up Devin McGlockton last year and gave the Eagles some really good minutes when he was on the floor.
Season Outlook: With the departure of Quinten Post, Devin McGlockton, and Armani Mighty, Strong is the lone returning Forward for the Eagles. The success of the Eagles this season will be heavily reliant on Strong’s performance. The Sophomore forward had a great end to the season, scoring 17 points in two games in the NIT. Hopefully, he will continue to develop and be the presence on the interior that Boston College needs to be competitive.
