Sullivan started the season well, when he contributed six points and six rebounds in 59–57 win over Dayton on 24 November 2001. His key steal on Dayton's last offensive possession gave the Wildcats a chance to win on a final trip down the floor and his 28 minutes established a new career high as did his point total. Three days later Andrew better his minutes record, logging a career high 39 minutes in a 61–58 overtime loss against La Salle University.
