A series of early triples by senior Corey Davis Jr. pushed the Cougars from a 4-4 tie game to a 13-4 lead, allowing the team to cruise its way to an 89-60 rout of DBU.
As a team, the Cougars shot a respectable 48.5 percent from the field and a blistering 40 percent from long-range, with Davis Jr. accounting for nine of Houston’s 14 successful three-pointers.
Redshirt freshman Cedrick Alley Jr. played his first game as a Cougar since suffering a hip injury that sidelined him for the entirety of last season.
