CJ: Donte Poole lay makes it 18-2 run

**Stardust** · 03-15-2012, 02:21 PM

Freshman point guard Zay Jackson might be the most improved #Racers from the start of the season until now.

**Stardust** · 03-15-2012, 02:21 PM

Second-half tally for CSU. Nine turnovers, two points. Not going to beat anybody that way

**Stardust** · 03-15-2012, 02:22 PM

Racers on a 9-2 run to start 2nd half. Canaan just airballed a 3, media timeout, Prohm jumped up, smiled at his star and rubbed his head

Despite Murray's outburst, Canaan still cold. He's 2 of 6 shooting in both halves

Colorado State showing signs of life again with four straight points to cut Murray State lead to 43-32 w/ 7:12 left

**Stardust** · 03-15-2012, 02:29 PM

Last call was bad for Colorado State though. Murray State's Isaiah Canaan was falling out of bounds when play stopped for overturned call

**Stardust** · 03-15-2012, 02:29 PM

This might be the worst offensive game I've seen Canaan play (4 of 13, 12 points)

**Stardust** · 03-15-2012, 02:32 PM

With Paul Hornung in the building, CSU's Pierce Hornung (doesn't appear they're related) is killing Murray on the offensive glass.

**Stardust** · 03-15-2012, 02:33 PM

CJ: Hornung has 12 points and 17 rebounds (7 offensive) for the Rams. Call him Windex.

Murray (and UK) fans to their feet as Murray polishes off a 58-41 win over CSU to reach the NCAA second round. This is NOT the second round.
