Cougs Cruise Past Santa Clara, 93-55

By Jessica Schmick on December 11, 2011 4:24 PM | No Comments | No TrackBacks
The Cougars played at Beasley Coliseum for the third time in four games, hosting the Santa Clara Broncos this afternoon. The game favored the Cougars from the start. WSU scored its first points on a Charlie Enquist layup to put the Cougs up 2-0 and never looked back. Spurred by Brock Motum and Enquist, the Cougs opened the game on a 13-3 run. At halftime the scoreboard read 48-27 with three Cougs scoring in double figures. The second half continued much the same way and WSU posted a dominating performance, beating the Broncos 93-55.

Player of the Game:
Charlie Enquist. This was a tough Player of the Game Award to give out. Charlie Enquist posted only his second career double-double and second in three games, but Brock Motum also scored a career-high 27 points. What sealed the deal for Enquist was the fact that he shot 1.000 in the game. Enquist scored 18 points on 7-of-7 from the field and 4-for-4 from the free throw line. He also pulled in 10 rebounds and never turned the ball over.

Play of the Game:
Lacy's dunk. There were a number of highlight dunks in this game for WSU, but DaVonte' Lacy's with 9:26 left in the game takes the cake. Lacy earns the award for making a defensive effort. Santa Clara's Evan Roquemore attempted to make a pass at the top of the arc, but Lacy got his arm in the passing lane and knocked the ball away. He hustled after it and picked up the ball at half court with no one in front of him. Everyone saw the dunk coming as Lacy rose up, brought the ball back, and slammed it home with one hand sending the crowd into a frenzy.

Turning Point:
Opening tip. The Cougars controlled this game from the beginning. Led by Brock Motum and Charlie Enquist, the Cougs went on a 13-3 run to start the game. The game continued, with short runs by both teams, but WSU was clearly in control as they slowly extended its lead. There were no lead changes and no ties as WSU cruised to a 38-point victory.

Stat of the Game:
Shooting percentage. While the Broncos also shot fairly well (.400), they could not keep up with the Cougars. Led by a perfect Charlie Enquist, WSU shot 31-of-46 (.674) from the field and .462 from beyond the arc. This is the best the Cougars have shot since Nov. 23, 1996 against Boise State when they shot 25-of-37 (.676).

The Cougars are now 6-4 overall and will play their fifth-straight game on the Palouse as they host Western Oregon Sunday, Dec. 18 at 4:35 p.m. at Beasley Coliseum.

Waving the flag for Wazzu,

Jim Crawford
