umkc hanging around.

Halftime
IUPUI-36; UMKC-31

As Jaguars play-by-play man just said, IUPUI not have an easy time with the Kangaroos. In fact, The 'Roos briefly held the lead tonight.

Here's a stat to keep in mind: IUPUI has turned the ball over nine times. UMKC? Three times. And they've scored 12 points off those turnovers.

Another stat: UMKC started the game shooting 2-of-9 and when 10-of-23 the rest of the way. The only thing keeping the Jags in the lead is 50 percent shooting from the field.

Is it rust? Who knows. Either way, UMKC is definitely within striking distance and certainly has Ron Hunter's attention.
