In the team’s first game of the week, coming off the winter break, Langford scored a career-high and game-high 25 points, including a game-high eight rebounds. He added two assists, two steals and a blocked shot.
 
The weekend conference road trip concluded with a win over Central State, where Langford scored 15 points and grabbed seven rebounds. He handed out three assists and added another blocked shot. He played a critical role in helping KWC overcome a 10-point deficit in the second half, scoring 13 of his 15 in the final 20 minutes.

Langford hitter a jumper in the paint to begin a comeback, and later hit a three-pointer to pull the team within three points. His dunk pulled the Panthers to within a point and as the lead switched back and forth between KWC and Central State, it was Langford’s basket that put the team up for good with 3:55 remaining.
