COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Evan Turner followed up his triple-double
with 24 points and 17 rebounds and No. 16 Ohio State recovered from
a listless spell to beat James Madison 72-44 on Thursday night in
the 2K Sports Classic.
David Lighty added 14 points and William Buford had 12 for the
Buckeyes (2-0), who advance to meet sixth-ranked defending national
champion North Carolina in the semifinals next Thursday night in
Madison Square Garden.
Turner had the program's second recorded triple-double in Monday
night's opener, going for 14 points, 17 rebounds and 10 assists in
a 100-60 win over Alcorn State. He finished with four assists and
two steals Thursday night.
Pierre Curtis had nine points for James Madison (1-0).
