Northwestern basketball destroys CB Tarragona in third-straight blowout, 85-63

Two days after beating down UCAM Murcia for a second-consecutive blowout win, Northwestern basketball gave CB Tarragona a similar treatment Saturday. The Wildcats beat the Spanish side 85-63, as they exploded in the second half following an unconvincing first two quarters of play.

The star of the afternoon was senior Tre Demps, who scored 38 points and sparked an offense that couldn't get much going early on.

Northwestern held a 19-14 lead after the first quarter, thanks to some more dunks--they don't call it Dunkwestern for no reason--as well as strong play from center Alex Olah.
