Michigan feels better after beating Chaminade in Maui

Lahaina, Hawaii — It didn’t take long for the Michigan basketball team to bounce back at the Maui Invitational.

The Wolverines rolled to an early lead and never looked back in a 102-64 win over tournament host Chaminade, a Division II team from Honolulu.

The victory lifts Michigan (4-1) to the fifth-place game at 5 p.m. Wednesday against VCU.

It also took a little bit of the sting away from a 77-75 loss to LSU in the Wolverines’ opener here 21 hours earlier in a game the Wolverines led by nine with five minutes to play, and one in which they missed a 3-pointer and a putback from close range in the final seconds.
