Semaj Christon, Dee Davis, and Brad Redford accounted for 42 of Xavier's 62 points in a 62-55 win over Kent St. We didn't look great as was expected with Justin Martin sidelined (concussion). But Semaj scored 18 to lead the Muskies in scoring again, Redford had 14 points (4 of 5 shooting from 3), and Davis had 10 points and 4 assists.
Throw in 9 and 8 rebounds from Travis Taylor and Isaiah Philmore respectively and it was enough to get the win. The Muskies did lose the battle of the boards (36-31) and gave up 14 offensive rebounds in the process. Yikes! Not a good sign with a physical Bearcats team up next.
The Crosstown Shootout, yes Shootout, is next. Hopefully Martin will be good to go by then. Countdown - 9 days until the media burns the city to the ground in remembrance of last year's fight which we all recall was the worst thing that has happened. Ever.
