"I wasn't pleased with our effort Friday against OnPoint but we were much better Saturday against Hill," said coach Brad Witherspoon. "We executed very well after half against Hill and that opened the game up for us."

Hill made a late run cutting the Mavs' lead to 74-62 but that was as close as Hill College would get as the Mavs closed out the Rebels earning their ninth straight win.
