TERRE HAUTE, IND. – The Indiana State men's basketball team rolled to a commanding 99-57 victory over Eureka on Tuesday night in the Hulman Center, improving to 5-4 on the season.

Ian Scott added 16 points.
Markus Harding pulled down a game-high 10 rebounds, and

Bruno Alocen broke open the scoring at 11-8. From there, Indiana State caught fire. A dominant 18-5 run over just over five minutes, with baskets from six different players, pushed their lead to 10.
The Sycamores never looked back. A subsequent 17-3 surge over the next five minutes extended the lead to 40-20.

Scott and Wagner each had 11 points at the intermission.
The second half proved more of the same, as Indiana State struck for three-straight points in the first minute and followed with an 11-2 burst sparked by a dunk from Scott. Eureka kept pace with Indiana State over 6 minutes 31 seconds, trailing only by a point in the stretch, 16-15.
