It marked the 17th time in 17 tries since the 1986-87 season that the Fighting Scots have lost to the Mules. CMSU has scored 90 points or more in all but four of those contests. Monmouth's total was the third-fewest points it has scored in the series.
The Mules' defensive quickness definitely posed a problem, as they recorded 15 steals and forced a total of 28 Monmouth turnovers. Joe Terwelp was the lone MC player in double digits with 14 points. Blaise Rogers and Chris Hebeler both chipped in eight points but were a combined 0-for-6 from beyond the arc.
