Caleb Houstan was big from behind the arc for Michigan, knocking down five deep ones. Houstan finished with 21 points. Hunter Dickinson (16 points), Devante Jones ( 14 points) and Eli Brooks (11 points) were all in double figures as well.
First Half
Michigan held a steady 2-6 point lead for just about the entire half. It was back and forth the whole way with no runs, and not a lot of deep balls or highlight plays either.
