KOKOMO, Ind. - The IU Kokomo Men's Basketball team put on a show Saturday afternoon on Senior Day inside the Student Activities & Events Center, dominating the Brescia Bearcats for a 96-63 victory.

With the win, the Cougars improve to 18-8 on the year, and 9-5 in River States Conference play.

IU Kokomo jumped out to a quick 8-2 lead before Brescia found a rhythm and took their first lead of the game at 12-10. The Bearcats led 23-21 with eight minutes and change remaining in the first half, but a Noah Harris triple gave the Cougars a lead they would they not relinquish.

Harris's triple sparked a quick 9-0 IUK run, yet Brescia quickly trimmed the deficit to two at 30-28 with five minutes to play in the first. The Cougars finished the half strong, outscoring the Bearcats 14-3 in the final five minutes, taking a 44-31 lead into the halftime locker room.

Seventh year Head Coach Eric Echelbarger's Cougars were essentially on cruise control for the entirety of the second half, but the final 20 minutes didn't come without a highlight.

Leading 54-39, Dell DeMyers knocked down three three-pointers in a span of four possessions, making it a 24-point IU Kokomo lead with 12 minutes to play.

The IU Kokomo lead never dropped below 20 points for the remainder of the game, as the Cougars rolled to a 33-point win.

Five Cougars scored in double-figures in Saturday's rout of Brescia, with all five seniors making an impact in the scoring column.

Noah Harris led the Cougs with 25 points and seven rebounds, with 20 of his 25 coming in the first half. Max Newman turned in one of his best all-around efforts of the season, recording an 18 point, 19 rebound double-double.

Dell DeMyers caught fire from beyond-the-arc, pouring in 19 points on 5-7 shooting from deep. Chris Chin finished with 10 points and seven assists, while Evan Kretz finished with 11 points. Drake Moore chipped in nine points in 18 minutes of action off the bench.

The Cougars will close out the regular season with a pair of road games, first at IU Columbus before a battle with the league's best in SMWC on Saturday.
