UALR (7-3) streaked to a 20-2 lead early in the game and never really let up. If this were an election, the networks would have declared a winner after the game's first media timeout.
Freshman John Gillon led the way with 17 points. Freshman Kemy Osse added 16. Freshman Stetson Bilings contributed 13. Do you sense a theme?
No starter played more than 20 minutes as UALR shot 55 percent from the field. UALR also held a 44-31 rebound advantage.
More importantly, UALR's defense completely shut down St. Gregory's. The Cavaliers (6-3) shot 24 percent from the field, including 0-13 from three-point range. St. Gregory's leading scorer Fayzon Richey, who averaged 24.3 points per game, was held to 2 points.
UALR plays at undefeated Cincinnati on Thursday.
