INDIANAPOLIS - The No. 24 UIndy men's basketball team upped its mark to a perfect 6-0 on the season with a convincing 94-41 win against visiting Cincinnati Christian Friday evening.  The Greyhounds compiled a 3-to-1 assist-to-turnover ratio while forcing 31 turnovers by the Eagles (4-6).

Freshman Quinten Hunter torched the Nicoson Hall nets with a game-high 23 points.  The Richmond, Ind., native drained 6-of-8 attempts from behind the 3-point arc, good for the most triples by a Hounds this season.

Four Greyhounds joined Hunter in double figures.  Both Avery Harmon and Jared Grady had 15 points and five steals, Cole Adair added 12 points on 5-of-6 shooting, and Reece Cheatham chipped in six assists and four steals to go with his 10 points.

The Greyhounds jumped out to an early double-digit lead, thanks in part to a swarming defensive effort.  The over-matched Eagles were limited to just two field goals in the first 16 minutes of play, as UIndy built a commanding 28-5 advantage before the half's final media timeout.

When the first-half buzzer finally sounded, CCU found itself down 24 points.  UIndy racked up 22 points off 18 Eagles turnovers, while the visitors shot just 3-of-16 (.188) from the floor.

Though the Eagles were a bit more efficient in the second half, the Hounds allowed little breathing room.  UIndy hung 59 points on the board in the final 20 minutes, with two coming on an alley-oop play from Cheatham to Brennan McElroy for the latter's second dunk of the night.

Up next for the Hounds is a rare non-conference rematch, as the team heads to Central State Dec. 5 for its second meeting with the Marauders in 11 days.  UIndy downed CSU, 100-56, at Nicoson Hall back on Nov. 24.
