Cole Swider Highlights vs Florida State

Syracuse was dominant in its 96-57 win over Florida State in the ACC Tournament second round on Wednesday. The Orange dominated from start to finish and led by as many as 42. A huge part of that performance was the play of Cole Swider. You can watch highlights of his outing in the video above. 

Swider finished with a game-high 28 points on 9-15 shooting including 4-6 from beyond the arc. While Swider's impact offensively was significant, even more was his play on the defensive end of the floor. He only finished with one steal and one rebound, but Swider closed out on shooters, contested shots and had a few more deflections as well. 

In addition, Swider grabbed 13 rebounds, which was second in the game only behind teammate Frank Anselem. 

Swider helped Syracuse get out to such a large lead, he did not have to play much of the second half. He finished with only 28 minutes logged in total, and had a +/- of +34. 

Swider and the Orange will take on Duke in the ACC Tournament quarterfinals Thursday at noon eastern on ESPN. Syracuse will be without star guard Buddy Boeheim, who was suspended for an incident with Florida State's Wyatt Wilkes.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting.  EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans.  After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years.  Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports.  Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
