San Jose State in an easy 82-61 win over William Jessup

It was as we expected: go inside, then repeat, repeat, repeat...

The game opened with a C.J. Webster putback of his own shot beginning the scoring. Chris Oakes then made one of two free throws. A Justin Graham pass to Webster led to another basket. Graham to Oakes resulted in a basket and foul call leading to an add-on free throw. Then it was another Webster putback and the Spartans were ahead 10-3.

It was 14-5 with 15:41 remaining.

At the 11:42 mark, San Jose State led 22-11 with Webster and Oakes each having 10 points.

With six minutes on the clock, Oakes already had a double-double of 14 points and 11 rebounds.

At the half, the score was 45-29 and effectively over for all intents and purposes.

Three Spartans achieved double-doubles: Oakes put up 18 points and 17 rebounds, Tim Pierce 21 points and 15 boards and Webster 15/10. Justin Graham collected seven assists.

Adrian Oliver started and played 11 minutes albeit with a sore knee but sat out the latter part of the first half and all of the second 20 minutes.

Next comes Louisiana Tech to Walt McPherson Court on Saturday, January 3, 5:30 pm.
