Lawrence, Frager fuel unbeaten Nebraska past New Mexico 84--72
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) --- Jamarques Lawrence scored 21 points, Rienk Mast added
17, and Nebraska stayed unbeaten with an 84--72 win over New Mexico on Friday
night.
Mast went 6-for-12 from the field and 4 of 5 at the line while adding four
rebounds and two assists for the Cornhuskers (5--0). Lawrence hit 4 of 7 from
3-point range, and reserve wing Braden Frager poured in 20 points on 6-of-8
shooting, including four 3s, to anchor a 27-point bench showing.
Nebraska led 43--25 at halftime behind nine made 3-pointers and crisp ball
movement. New Mexico (3--2) surged early in the second half as Antonio Chol and
Jake Hall combined for four 3s, and a Luke Haupt corner triple cut the margin
to 51--47 with 12:31 left.
The Huskers steadied themselves with a 10--4 stretch. Lawrence buried a
right-wing 3 and Mast scored inside to regain control. Sandfort's layup and 3,
followed by two Frager buckets and a Mast jumper stretched it to 71--58 and
effectively shut the door.
Hall led the Lobos with 20 points and six 3-pointers. Chol scored 12, and
Buljan added 11 points and seven rebounds for a New Mexico group that shot 13
of 44 from deep. -__ Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout
