Box score

LOUISVILLE, Ky.-  No. 22-ranked Bellarmine grabbed an 89-68 win over visiting Indianapolis in men's basketball action Saturday night.  BU had five players in double figures to earn the win.

The Knights led for the majority of the game after getting out to a 7-1 lead off the tip.  UIndy (9-16, 4-12 GLVC) tied the score at 17-apiece after triples on back-to-back trips from Keith Radcliff and Sergey Struck.  BU (21-5, 12-5) retook a seven-point lead from that point and never looked back, taking a 42-33 lead at the break.

The home team quickly stretched the lead with a 9-1 run to start the second half and led by as many as 18 in the opening minutes.  The Greyhounds managed to whittle the deficit to five after a free throw from Donald Cloutier made it 68-63 with five minutes left.  The Knights would score 20 of the next 24 points to close out the win.

Racliff led UIndy with 16 points while Tyke Cockerham and Tristan Rogers each added 13 for the Greyhounds.

The loss, coupled with Saint Joseph's upset win at No. 5 Northern Kentucky, officially eliminated UIndy from postseason playoff consideration.  The Greyhounds will get a chance to help keep the rival Pumas out of the GLVC tournament as well when the two teams meet Thursday night in Rensselaer, Ind.  Tip time is slated for 8:30 p.m. Eastern.
