Fredette is a 6-foot, 2-inch guard who put up an impressive 37 points in the double-overtime game. He's a promising Junior with an impressive jump shot that helped him sink Florida with a pair of big three-point plays. Up next for Fredette is an impressive Kansas State Wildcats team with the size and speed to make it difficult for Fredette to get open shots.
