Williams Scores 28, But NU Men are Shaded by Saint Mary’s

Despite Brice Williams scoring a game-high 28 points, the Nebraska men’s basketball team fell to Saint Mary’s 77-74 at the Sanford Pentagon Sunday afternoon. 

Williams’ 28 points was the highest total in his NU career.  He hit 8 of 12 shots from the field, but his closely guarded 3-point attempt to force overtime was off the mark. 

The Huskers, who slipped to 3-1, will travel to Omaha to battle rival Creighton Friday night.  The Bluejays upped their record to 4-0 with a 79-56 home win over Kansas City Saturday night.
