Excerpt from the Dayton Daily News
Wright State fell behind by 15 almost before fans had a chance to settle in their seats.
IU Indy hit its first five 3′s and 9 of its first 11 shots while bolting to a 24-9 lead with 13:31 to go.
But some timely 3-point shooting — and key contributions from subs — kept the Horizon League first-round game from getting away from the eighth-seeded Raiders. They took a 42-41 halftime lead and kept the surge going in a 98-85 win over the ninth-seeded Jaguars on Tuesday.
They finished 14 of 30 from 3 while improving to 15-17 overall. They’ll play top seed Robert Morris on the road at 8 p.m. Thursday.
Jack Doumbia, Andrew Welage and Logan Woods popped off the bench to score a combined 20 first-half points (on 8-of-10 shooting) to ignite the rally.
Doumbia finished with 23 points, equaling his career high. He went 8 of 8 from the field and 6 of 8 on free throws.
