Miami (OH) RedHawks at Central Michigan Chippewas

Marcus Keene (50 points) stars in Central Michigan win

"This was big for me, for us as a team, but to score 50 points in a college basketball game, that's anybody's dream who's a scorer and I accomplished it. It feels good," Keene said. "I was just hot today and my teammates kept finding me. Especially Braylon [Rayson]."

Keene's 10 3-pointers tied the school record set by Tommie Johnson in 1987 against Wright State. His 50 points, capped by a free throw with 1:20 left, set a McGuirk Arena record and were the most by a Chippewa since David Webber had 51 against Ball State in 2000.

Rayson scored 21 points with six assists for the Chippewas (12-7, 2-4 Mid-American), who tied a program record with 20 3-pointers. Keene was 15-of-23 from the floor, including 10-of-15 from distance, and hit all 10 of his free throw attempts.

CMU topped the century mark for the fifth time this season and the 11th time under coach Keno Davis.

Trailing 45-35 at halftime, the Chippewas closed to 54-53 after David DiLeo and Keene hit back-to-back 3s, then led 68-67 on Cecil Williams' dunk. The RedHawks led 71-70 on Michael Weathers' layup, but the Chippewas pulled ahead 89-79 after Keene hit three 3s.

Keene, whose previous highs were 44 points and eight 3-pointers, scored 26 straight CMU points in a little under six minutes, hitting five 3-pointers and seven free throws.

Weathers finished with 22 points and Marcus Weathers had 19 for the RedHawks (8-11, 1-5), who have lost two straight.

Keene was injured in a win over Toledo eight days ago but played on it and scored 29 on Wednesday against Ball State.

"It's still sore, there's still pain," he said. "I've been doing a lot of treatment in those three days in between."
