7. Sean O'Mara, Xavier

Round of 64 vs. Maryland
nERD: 53.90
18 points, 7 rebounds

O'Mara's game against Maryland may not have been as flashy or high scoring as Bluiett's takedown of Florida State, but it was more efficient. The junior center did all his scoring in the paint, making 5 out of his 6 field goal attempts while also going 8-for-9 at the free throw line. Of his seven rebounds, three came on offense.

While Bluiett then stole the show for Xavier in the following round, posting a 44.84 nERD, O'Mara also delivered a strong performance. In the Round of 32, he made both of his field goal attempts, went 7-for-7 from the charity stripe and blocked 3 shots, culminating in a 40.25 nERD.
