12/19/2017 12:45:00 AM | Men's Basketball
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Thanks to 17 3-pointers, including 10 in the second half, Fort Wayne men's basketball ran away from the Indiana Hoosiers 92-72 on Monday (Dec. 18) evening at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall. It is the second straight year the Mastodons have defeated Indiana.
The opening half was each team making runs. Indiana made the first two baskets of the game, but it was a 9-0 Fort Wayne run that put the Mastodons up 13-8 five minutes in. IU responded with an 11-0 run, but was countered by a 15-4 push from the 'Dons. Kason Harrell sank a three in the final seconds of the first half to put the 'Dons down one, 37-36, at the break.
The 'Dons went up for good in the second half thanks to a 17-4 advantage starting at the 18:09 mark over the next four minutes. Indiana cut the Mastodon lead to single-digits with 11:53 to go, but once again Fort Wayne had an answer, as it pushed the lead to 21 with an 18-5 run. The Mastodon defense held the Hoosiers to just two field goals over an 8:35 stretch of the second half, while the 'Dons knocked down 10 field goals, including six 3-pointers.
The Mastodons connected on just three more field goals than the Hoosiers (31-28), the difference came that the 'Dons shot 56.7 percent (17-of-30) on 3-point attempts. The Mastodon defense played a pivotal role in the game, as the 'Dons forced 18 Indiana turnovers, turning them into 29 points.
The Mastodons were led by a career-high 28 points from Harrell, who connected on 6-of-11 from beyond the arc. Bryson Scott finished with 26 points, five rebounds and four steals. John Konchar added 16 points, seven rebounds and seven assists. Dylan Carl ended his night with a career-high 14 points, hitting 4-of-5 on three-point attempts. Harrell, Konchar and Carl combined to make 14 3-pointers on the night.
Indiana falls to 6-6. Fort Wayne improves to 8-5. The 'Dons are now 2-1 all-time against Indiana.
Fort Wayne returns to action on Thursday (Dec. 21) vs. Liberty in the New Orleans Shootout.
