BOX SCORE
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Corey Schwab scored 18 points and Ryan McDade added 17 points and 13 rebounds as Northern Arizona defeated Montana State 65-62 in the opening round of the Big Sky tournament on Thursday night. Schwab moved into the conference's top 10 career-list in 3-pointers after connecting on six from 3-point range. The senior hit back-to-back 3-pointers to even the score at 55 with 5:03 left. Until then the Lumberjacks had trailed since the 11:32 mark in the first half. Northern Arizona went ahead for good after Casey Grundman, who finished with 12 points, completed a three-point play at the line, giving the Lumberjacks a 56-57 lead. Fourth-seed Northern Arizona (15-13), the defending conference tournament champions, will play second-seed Eastern Washington (16-10) in the semifinals on Friday. Justin Brown led fifth-seed Montana State (16-14) with 13 points and eight rebounds. The Bobcats, who finished the year losing four of their last five, went on a 19-9 run to take a 27-19 advantage with less than two minutes to play in the first half. Neither teams shot well in the first half, the Bobcats making 35 percent of their field goals and Northern Arizona 31 percent. Send this story to a friend
