Kansas set a record in its final game in Allen Fieldhouse for 2001. The Jayhawks made their first 17 free throws-in a row-on their way to a 106-73 thrashing of South Carolina State. Drew Gooden also set a personal record with 21 rebounds.
The Bulldogs hit the night’s first basket, but that was the only time all night that they held a lead. Nick Collison’s three-pointer at the 18:30 mark of the first half put Kansas ahead for good.
Kansas stretched the lead out over the rest of the half, ending with a thunderous Collison jam. He was fouled on the play, but missed the attempt, ending the Jayhawks’ string.
The second half was just more of the same, with KU’s largest lead coming at the end: 33.
Moses Malone, Jr. was the lone bright spot for South Carolina State, leading all scoring with 27 points. Drew Gooden led Kansas with 25 points to go with his 21 rebounds. The total rebounding edge was heavily in KU’s favor: 65-30.
Six Jayhawks scored in double-digits. In addition to Gooden, Krik Hinrich and Keith Langford each had 12, Jeff Boschee scored 11 and Wayne Simien added 10. Aaron Miles scored nine points and dished out seven assists.
Up next for the Hawks is a trip to Jeff Boschee’s home state: North Dakota.
