Ann Arbor — Senior guard Zavier Simpson scooped up the loose ball near midcourt, shook free from a defender and served up a one-handed alley oop to junior forward Isaiah Livers for an emphatic dunk.
Following a Houston Baptist timeout, Simpson swished a 3-pointer from the wing to give Michigan a 20-point lead less than eight minutes into the game.
It was that kind of night for the Wolverines, who got off to a blistering start and never looked back en route to a 111-68 win Friday at Crisler Center.
