EVANSTON, Ill. — It had been three years and 13 days since Aaron Falzon had a 20-point game in a Northwestern uniform.
Back on Jan 9, 2016, when NCAA Tournament berths and Welsh-Ryan Arena renovations were nothing more than dreams, Falzon continued a strong start to his true freshman season by hitting six threes in a road win over Minnesota. It was already the ninth multiple-three game of his fledgling career; the four-star recruit had quickly become a key member of Chris Collins’ starting lineup. He’d go on to hit 63 threes that year, second-most by a freshman in school history.
