Cougars top 100 for third time in win over MLC

MORRIS, Minn. - Friday night, Minnesota Morris shot 60 percent from the floor in the team's 96-78 win over Bethany Lutheran. Saturday evening, the Cougars were even better, shooting 65 percent, in their 110-56 win over Martin Luther in UMAC men's basketball action at Jim Gremmels Court.

This marks the third time this season the Cougars have surpassed the century mark in scoring.

Junior guard CD Douglas was presented with a commemorative ball before the game, a night after becoming the seventh player in program history to score 1,000 career points. He added to that total with 22 points on Saturday on 8-of-9 shooting and he had a near double-double with 9 assists.

John Haseman went 4-for-5 from 3-point range on his way to 21 points. Noah Grove added 13 while missing just two shots from the floor. The Cougars shot 62 percent from the floor in the first half.

That percentage rose to 69 in the second half, including 71 percent from 3 (10-for-14). Jeremy Halverson was a key reason for that percentage as he got himself in a groove. Over a three-minute stretch, the sophomore drained four straight 3s, including a 4-point play, as he wound up leading all scorers with 23 points. On the defensive end, he also added four blocked shots.

Minnesota Morris (6-3, 2-1 in UMAC) next plays host to Crown next Saturday at 5 p.m.
