This was only a one-point game at halftime and the Lopes were able to take advantage of a poor shooting night by the Gaels and build a comfortable lead. WAC Player of the Year Tyon Grant-Foster stepped up with 22 points and seven rebounds.
Alabama (22-11) rolled in its first-round matchup on Sunday, dominating Charleston 109-96. This was just a three-point game near the end of the first half before the Crimson Tide went on a 16-2 run heading into halftime. They continued to lay it on the Cougars coming out of the locker room, crossing the 100-point threshold and shooting 60% from the field for the game. Mark Sears led with 30 points and five assists.
