SALT LAKE CITY – Corey Hadnot II scored a team-high 20 points in Purdue Fort Wayne's 85-77 men's basketball loss at Big 12 member Utah on Tuesday (Nov. 18) evening.
The Utes went to the break ahead 42-32 on the Mastodons. They opened the scoring in the second half with back-to-back threes to grab their largest lead of the game at 16 points. The Mastodons scored eight straight to cut the deficit in half, capped by a Mikale Stevenson transition layup, to make the score 48-40 with 17:30 left.
Try as the Runnin' Utes did, they never ran away from the Mastodons. Purdue Fort Wayne out-scored Utah 45-43 in the final half.
It was still an eight-point game with 11:18 on the clock after a Darius Duffy dunk. A 6-0 push made it a 69-63 game with 3:08 left as the Utes went over five minutes without a point. But six-points was as close as the 'Dons advanced down the stretch. Utah's Don McHenry's three with 52 seconds left in the game made it a nine-point advantage and made it a free throw contest the rest of the way.
Hadnot scored 20 points on 8-of-16 shooting. He has three 20-point games this season. Stevenson and DeAndre Craig Jr. both scored 15 points. Stevenson added five boards and three assists. Craig contributed seven assists, four rebounds and two steals to his night.
The 'Dons held a 43-34 edge in points in the paint. Purdue Fort Wayne shot 60.7 percent from the floor in the second half. All eight free throw attempts for the 'Dons came in the final half. Utah was 15-of-19 from the line and shot 51.8 percent from the floor in the game. Terrence Brown had a game-high 27 points for the home team.
Utah improves to 5-0. The 'Dons fall to 2-4. Purdue Fort Wayne stays on the road and is at Saint Louis on Friday (Nov. 21) evening.
