Following the close loss to Butler on Wednesday night, the Cincinnati Bearcats got back on track with a comfortable 87-66 win over Morgon State thanks to a strong performance from their front court.
That’s the formula for success this season, leaning on UC’s tall, lanky big men to dominate the paint. They didn’t exactly leverage them against the Bulldogs. Sure, Ellis dropped a team high 16 points on Butler but did a large amount of his damage from the line, going 8-10. He only took four shots from the field. The same for Gary Clark and Coreontae DeBerry only shot twice.
