The 2nd leading scorer in SJU history

LSU fans will be disappointed to hear that Galloway flirted with the idea of joining the Tigers in 2010. He ultimately elected for Philadephia’s St. Joseph University instead.

In his time at St. Joe’s Galloway shined and altered the Hawks history books. He was the school’s all time leader in three points made with 343 and finishing second in scoring all time behind Jameer Nelson with 1,991.

In his sophomore and senior seasons, Galloway shot over 45% from three and finished with a career 43% average from the field.

Galloway also brought durability to the Hawks, leading the A-10 conference in minutes played his senior season.  He also led the conference in Offensive Rating, Offensive Win Shares, Win Shares, Effective Field Goal Percentage, Three Point Field Goals, Three Point Field Goal Percentage, Turnover Percentage, Free Throw Percentage and True Shooting Percentage.
