The Eagles never got closer than six in the second half with the CUW lead fluctuating between 8 and 15 points for most of the half.

Skip Newton-Kemp added 14 CUW points on 5-7 shooting and Mitchell Schneider notched another 13.

"I was proud of how we responded," said Cassidy. "WE controlled the glass (41-31) and made good decisions."
