BLOOMSBURG -- Greg Elliott scored a career-high 19 points to lead six players in double figures as Bloomsburg posted a 91-38 win over Penn State Wilkes-Barre on Monday night at Nelson Field House.
The Huskies (3-2) controlled the game from the opening tip and quickly led 11-2 in the first two and half minutes of play. Larry Webster had four of the 11 points, with Elliott getting a three-pointer in the opening minutes.
Bloomsburg continued to build on the lead by as many as 30 points, 43-13, with a minute to go before halftime after a jumper from Elliott following a steal from Trevon Johnson.
In the second half the Huskies pushed the lead to as many as 56 points before a late 3-pointer for PSU Wilkes-Barre made the final margin 53. The 38 points allowed by the Huskies is the fewest since the team allowed 39 to Cheyney in the 1994-95 season.
Along with Elliott's 19, Ed Hall added 12 with Webster and Jamar Smack getting 11, while Earl Knight and Johnson chipped in with 10 each. All 10 players on the Huskies scored at least two points in the game. Penn State Wilkes-Barre, now 5-5, was led by Matt Clemons with nine points.
