Freshman center Thomas Bryant finished with a career-high 20 points to lead Indiana to a 99-72 win over Kennesaw State on Tuesday night at Assembly Hall in Bloomington, Ind.

Williams, a junior, had hit just four 3-pointers through his first 12 games this season but was 4 of 14 from 3-point range Tuesday. Against the Owls (3-11), he finished with three 3-pointers on 3 of 4 shooting from that range.

With his team trailing by just six with 17:06 remaining in the second half, Kennesaw State head coach Al Skinner received a technical foul.

Over the next 3:34, the Owls came as close as eight points before the Hoosiers finished the game on a 36-16 run. Overall, Indiana outscored Kennesaw State 53-34 in the second half.

The 34 second-half points nearly matched a season-high 38 first-half points for the Owls.

Sophomore guard James Blackmon Jr. added 19 points for Indiana. Yonel Brown led Kennesaw State with a game-high 26 points.
