Isaac leads No. 16 Purdue past Lehigh, 77-55
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) Sophomore center Isaac Haas scored 21 of his career-high 24 points in the second half and No. 16 Purdue pulled away to beat winless Lehigh 77-55 on Saturday night.

Johnny Hill added 13 points, P.J. Thompson had 10, Vince Edwards finished with nine points and 10 rebounds, and Caleb Swanigan had seven points and 12 rebounds.
Kempton led Lehigh (0-6) with 17 points and nine rebounds.
