Tonight's game with VCU will be televised nationally on ESPNU. Jenkins and the Pride will next be in action at home when they face Drexel this Saturday at 4 p.m. for Welcome Back Students Day with a near-capacity crowd expected at the Mack Sports Complex. Jenkins could break the school scoring record on Saturday, as he enters the VCU game just 35 points shy of the mark (2,276 points) held by former teammate Antoine Agudio (2004-08).
