January 13 at Sanford Coyote Sports Center in Vermillion, SD
Midco Sports Network

This was our first time watching Stanley Umude play and the South Dakota sophomore didn't disappoint.

Umude scored 26 points on 11-of-18 shooting, including 11-of-15 on his two-point attempts as the hosts erased a first-half deficit of as much as 10 points to win 87-73.

Tristan Simpson added 19 points and three others were in double figures for South Dakota, which scored 50 second-half points.

Matt Weir was another sophomore who had a great night, scoring a team-high 20 points on 5-of-5 shooting from distance for Purdue-Fort Wayne. Weir was a big part of a 17-0, first-half run for the visitors that put them up 34-24 with 5:25 to go until halftime.

Weir's teammates struggled from behind the arc, though, missing all but four of their 23 three-point attempts.
