Winston Blake did show signs of finally pulling out of his slump as he he hit for 14 off the bench, Aaron Jennings had 15 for the Cats...
Also scoring for the Cats: Evan Seacat had 6 points, Mohamed Hachad, Jitim Young and Jason Burke had 5 each, and Jim Maley had 6 points, but T.J. Parker was shut out in a game where there were plenty of open looks for 3s, but the Wildcats, shooting 10-36 [27.8%] from the arc, just couldn't convert. Add 19-56 [33.9%] shooting from the floor and NU just couldn't stay with the Buckeyes even with the Bucks having 15 Turnovers to NU's 7. The Buckeye's out rebounded the Cats 45-26. The Bucks were led in scoring by Guards Brent Darby with 15 and Sean Connolly [right-AP Photo/Chris Putman] with 13. Zach Williams, had 11 in his first start for a the Bucks for a while. Jitim Young apparently sustained a dislocated finger and missed most of the 2nd half. There was no post game interview with NU Coach Bill Carmody due to limited coverage by WGN.
