Wooster's 3-Point Barrage Leads to 32-Point Win at Hanover

Bryan Wickliffe, photographed here last season, was one of five Wooster players to score in double figures on Sunday.

The College of Wooster drained 19-of-42 3-pointers, keying a 93-61 victory over the host school in Hanover College’s John R. Collier Tournament consolation game on Sunday afternoon at Hanover, Ind. The 19 3-pointers made were the fourth-most in team history.

Wooster (2-3), playing less than 24 hours after a close 76-67 setback to No. 7 ranked University of Wisconsin-Platteville, jumped out to a 16-5 lead just over six minutes into Sunday’s action. The Fighting Scots misfired on their first two attempts from beyond the arc, but then made four in a row, including three by Justin Hallowell (Worthington, Ohio / Thomas Worthington), to build an early double-digit cushion.

Hanover (1-4) would only get as close as eight the rest of the way, with that coming at 25-17 at the 5:00 mark in the opening half. Moments later, Wooster put together a 14-5 burst, turning a 28-19 game into an 18-point margin (42-24), and it entered the break with a 45-28 advantage.
