Emanuel Sharp scored 18 points and LJ Cryer added 17 to lead No. 15 Houston to a blowout victory over Texas A&M Corpus Christi 87-51 at home on Saturday.
Cryer was 5 of 7 from three point-range, while Sharp went 3 of 6 from the field and 9 of 9 from the free-throw line.
Terrance Arceneaux made his first start of the season for Houston, tallying 13 points, five rebounds and three assists. Arceneaux had been a key contributor in the sixth-man role for Houston but got the starting nod after J'wan Thompson was ruled out with a foot injury that occurred in Wednesday's win against Toledo.
