No Overtime Needed: Bearcats Get Quality Win Against Vermont
Aaron Doster-USA TODAY SportsFor the first time in four games, the Cincinnati Bearcats were able to win in 40 minutes. The new slogan for this season is - “never easy”.
Bearcats took a 40-27 lead into halftime. They led 54-31 at the under 16 minutes timeout. That lead dwindled down to 11 points with just over 3 minutes left and Vermont got to within single digits, but Cincinnati managed to hold on and win 82-73 and improve to 6-2.
Keith Williams hit all 4 three pointers that he attempted and led the Bearcats with a career-high 23 points, plus 5 rebounds and 5 assists.
Jaevin Cumberland played 29 minutes off the bench and scored 21 points, hitting 5 of 8 three pointers.
