November 24, 2023 | Cowboy Basketball
STILLWATER โ Mike Marsh finished with 14 points on 6-of-9 shooting as Oklahoma State rolled over Houston Christian, 92-65, Friday night at Gallagher-Iba Arena.
ย
Six players scored in double-figures for OSU (3-3) for the first time since a Nov. 22, 2021 win over the College of Charleston.
ย
Marsh was accompanied by Jarius Hicklen (12 points on four three-pointers), Eric Dailey Jr. (12), Brandon Garrison (10), John-Michael Wright (10) and Jamyron Keller (10).
ย
Garrison became just the fourth Cowboy freshman to record six-or-more blocks in a single game, joining a club that includes Yor Anei (2018-19), Byron Houston (1988-89) and Leroy Combs (1979-80).
ย
Javon Small (eight assists) and Quion Williams (career-high six) combined for 14 of OSU's 24 assists. The Cowboys committed just nine turnovers and out-rebounded the visitors 47-38.
ย
Marcus Greene (16 points) and Chigozie Alvarez (15) led the scoring for Houston Christian (0-4), which made nine of its first 13 shots on the way to a 25-23 lead midway through the first half but connected on just 15-of-51 the rest of the way to finish at 37.5%.
ย
Wright's three-pointer โ the 250th of his NCAA career โ put OSU back in front for good with 9:26 to play in the half and set off a 10-0 run. The Cowboys would lead by 15 at the intermission.
ย
OSU shot 52.9% during its highest-scoring first half (52 points) since Dec. 22, 2017 when they put up 53 against UTRGV. Marsh accounted for 10 points and Dailey and Wright chipped in eight each.
ย
HCU scored the first four points of the second half to pull within 52-41 but missed its next eight shots.
ย
OSU capitalized with 21-3 run, sparked by three Hicklen triples.
ย
The Cowboys pushed their lead to as many as 32 points with 5:03 to play.
ย
Helped by 20 fast break points, OSU shot 48.6% from the field. Ten Cowboys played at least 10:00 and all of them scored.
