CBI First Round: IUPUI - 74, Hofstra - 60



Robert Glenn scored 32 points in IUPUI first ever Division-1 post-season victory of Hofstra University Wednesday night. Rob spread his point-scoring out evenly over both halves while peppering in 6 boards, while Alex Young added 18 points and 3 rebounds. The Jaguars lead from beginning to end, beginning the game on a staggering 21-3 run. HU was able to pull within six at the 3:14 mark of the first half, but that's as close as they could come. Ron Hunter's club came ready to play, not wanting to end the season with two consecutive losses. The Jag's three seniors, Robert Glenn, Jon Avery, and  Billy Pettiford combined for 41 points, 18 rebounds, 8 assists, and 4 blocks. The win is IUPUI's first even in D-1 post-season play, and it sets up a home game 7PM Monday night against Princeton University (21-8 [11-3 Ivy]) who beat Duquesne also on Wednesday. The game will be a BLACK OUT, so come ready to get LOUD for the Jags!
