OMAHA, Neb. (AP) -- Keith Parks' 18 points led four players in
double figures as North Dakota held off fifth-ranked Nebraska at
Omaha 78-73 Saturday, ending the Mavericks' 12-game winning streak
and 14-game home victory string.
The North Central Conference loss drops the Mavericks to 15-2
overall and 1-1 in the league. It was the league opener for the
15-3 Fighting Sioux.
Abdul Mills led UNO with 20 points and a career-high 14
rebounds, while
Quantel Murphy scored a career-best 19 points.
Calvin Kapel added 13 points and
Ryan Curtis 10, but it was not
enough against North Dakota.
Parks was joined in double figures by Caro Nobles with 15, Todd
Rypkema 12 and
Mike Johnson 11. Parks also hauled in 13 rebounds.
The Mavericks led 15-6 six minutes into the game and 22-12
midway through the half but the Fighting Sioux recovered with a
13-4 run to take a 36-35 lead at the half.
UNO led only briefly in the second half, before the Sioux took
the momentum and built a 55-46 lead on Steve Bradley's
three-pointer with 13:40 to play.
Parks and Johnson each hit a pair of free throws in the final 14
seconds to secure the win.
The teams will square off again in Grand Forks on Friday.
