The No. 16 Butler University men’s basketball team pulled away from the No. 22 Cincinnati Bearcats down the stretch to win 75-65 in a sold out Hinkle Fieldhouse on Dec. 10.

Head coach Chris Holtmann changed his starting line up after their loss on Wednesday to the Indiana State Sycamores. Kamar Baldwin and Sean McDermott made their first career starts at Butler while Kelan Martin and Avery Woodson would come off the bench for the first time this year.
