Dominant game en route to Sweet 16 Kaufman-Renn accumulated 22 points (7-12 FG, 8-10 FT), 15 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 38 minutes during Saturday's 76-62 win over McNeese State. Impact Kaufman-Renn's 15 rebounds were a career-high; he absolutely dominated the glass against McNeese State to help Purdue punch a ticket to the Sweet 16. He was also the Boilermakers' leading scorer, shooting 58 percent from the field and collecting eight points on the foul line. Against a smaller team like McNeese, the forward's dominance doesn't come as much of a surprise. With the likes of Braden Smith and Fletcher Loyer in the backcourt, Purdue's guard play usually isn't a question mark, but Kaufman-Renn will need to continue his dominance for the Boilermakers to advance past either Houston or Gonzaga.
