The junior guard was one of four double-digit scorers for the
Fighting Irish (8-3), who bounced back from an 80-73 loss to
Indiana on Dec. 19.
Notre Dame senior forward Zach Auguste totaled 16 points and 10
rebounds, junior forward V.J. Beachem scored 16, and sophomore
forward Bonzie Colson added 14 points and nine boards.
Cameron Morse, a sophomore guard and the Penguins' leading
scorer, scored 22 points, and sophomore forward Sidney Umude
added 15 points and 11 rebounds.
Youngstown State (5-8) fell for the fourth time in five games.
The Penguins led 9-5 just over four minutes into the first half,
but the Fighting Irish responded with a 16-4 run before settling
into a 41-33 halftime lead.
A layup gave Notre Dame its biggest lead of the night at 24 at
12:00 of the closing half, and the lead never slipped below
eight points after that point.
