DePaul vs. Rockhurst: Blue Demons use second half to pull away in 79-53 win

It was a great night for the DePaul Blue Demon basketball program. After the women’s team beat their opponent by over 50 points, the men’s program got their season off to a great start. DePaul got their (unofficial) first win of the year with a 79-53 win over Division II Rockhurst Eagles.

The game got off to a rough start offensively. By the time the first media timeout occurred, only a five points had been scored by both teams combined. Granted this was an exhibition game. so some slack can be given for the lack of offense.
