The Washington State Cougars raced out to a 13-2 lead in the first four minutes of the game and never looked back, demolishing the Detroit Mercy Titans, 96-54.
For the second consecutive game, the Cougs used some ridiculous shooting to subdue their opponent, hitting a school record 19 three-pointers on just 29 attempts for a cool 65.5% out there, leading to an effective field goal percentage of 77.7 — the second highest for WSU since at least 2002, when kenpom.com started keeping records.
The Cougs made 12-of-18 threes in the first half alone en route to a 56-point half that gave WSU a 33-point lead heading into the locker room.
