His 56 3-pointers ranked third on the team, as he had multiple 3-pointers in 18 of his 33 appearances.  Sandfort had 15 games in double figures, including a career-high 22 points, including 6-of-8 from 3-point range, against Southern and 16 apiece at both Michigan and Nebraska. In the game in Lincoln, Sandfort also grabbed a career-high 11 rebounds for his first career double-double.  He closed the year with four straight double-figure efforts, averaging 12.3 points on 57 percent shooting and 6.0 rebounds per game in that span.
