McCrea Dominant as Bulls Take Down Youngstown St.

Javon McCrea took his game to a new level Saturday as he and his teammate Mitchell Watt collected double doubles in an 80-72 win over Youngstown State.

The Bulls had one of their best shooting nights of the year as they were 50% from the floor.

UB trailed at half 39-38 but came out of the break energized as McCrea scored the first six points for the Bulls. McCrea ended the night with 29 points and 13 rebounds. Dominant was an understatement to describe his game tonight. The most impressive stat for McCrea on the night was his effectiveness from the floor. He was a remarkable 14-17 from the field.

Bulls forward Mitchell Watt had a solid game as well with 20 points and 10 rebounds. Watt also added four huge blocks to keep the Bulls in front down the stretch.

Kendrick Perry lead the Penguins with 18 points. Blake Allen and Ashen Ward also added 17 each but it wasn't enough to take down the Bulls. The loss drops Youngstown St. to 6-3 (1-1 in Horizon).

The Bulls seem to be playing strong basketball right now as this win ups their win total to six on the year (6-2). They're next game may be the toughest yet as they will travel on the road to take on the Cougars of BYU. (Dec. 20)
