 knocked down 4-of-7 behind the arc for an 18 point night and dished out 3 of the Cougars' 20 assists on 32 made buckets.

Making his Cougar debut, Majok Chuol added 5 points and 4 rebounds in 15 minutes of action off the bench, sending the crowd into a frenzy on an electric three-point play from Moss' assist for his first collegiate points with 6:13 remaining. Chuol would add two more points on the ensuing possession twenty seconds later as Kindell's steal and assist set up the freshman for an inside bucket for Barton's largest lead of 17 coming at 75-57.

Barton erased an early 3-point deficit in taking the lead for good just over three minutes into the contest, leading by five at the break before building a double digit lead in holding off any Tiger surge for its 14th straight win in the series.
