Game 618 - Morgan State at DePaul

November 12 at Wintrust Arena in Chicago, IL
FS1

Nice night for DePaul, which overwhelmed the visitors from Baltimore in a 91-63 victory.

The Blue Demons (2-0), looking for their first winning season - and first with more than 12 wins since 2006 - have a pair of really good players in Max Strus and Eli Cain. Strus scored 25 points on 9-of-15 shooting to go along with nine rebounds, while Cain added 21 on 7-of-14 from the field. The pair combined for a 10-for-17 night from three-point range.

DePaul doubled up the MEAC school on the glass (52-26 rebounding edge), and after Morgan State got to within 22-16 on a jumper by Martez Cameron with about seven minutes to play in the first half DePaul went on a 10-1 run and cruised for the rest of the night.

Cameron led the Morgan State with 11 points.
