The Scots dashed out to a 47-35 first-half advantage after sinking 62-percent of their shots from the floor. Before the intermission, Jekobe Coleman deposited 4-of-5 shots for a team-high 10 points. Kevin Chong, Myles Rasnick, Brandon Jones, and Nicholas Clifton each dropped six points on 10-of-16 collective shooting. MC pulled away with 20 key bench points while posting 30 points in the paint.
