Jones scored 11 points in 21 league games while notching three multiple-point games and scoring three points on two occasions. <\/p>\n<p>As a sophomore he played in all 33 games scoring 34 points, finishing as the second highest scorer on the team. He racked up 17 goals and 17 assists while scoring eight multiple-point games including two multiple-goal contests.
