LAST OUTING

Austin Peay's Elijah Hutchins-Everett tallied 19 points and seven rebounds in his team's 63-44 loss at then-RV/RV Purdue, Nov. 11.

Hutchins-Everett scored the Governors first eight points, culminating with an old-fashioned 3-point play to trim an Austin Peay deficit to two less than six minutes into the game. A steal and two-handed flush by Shon Robinson kept the Governors within four, 16-12, at the nine minute mark of the first half. 

The Boilermakers countered with a 9-0 spurt in a span of 4:54 to grab a 25-12 upper hand. Cameron Copeland drained a jumper from the wing with 1:16 left before halftime to make the score 27-16, but Purdue hit a layup as time expired to make the score 31-16 at intermission.

Hutchins-Everett scored 10 of his 17 in the first 20 minutes, going 4-of-8 from the field and 1-of-2 from deep. 

Copeland and Hutchins-Everett canned consecutive treys as part of their team's 8-1 run less than four minutes into the second stanza. A Sean Durugordon fastbreak bucket trimmed the Governors' deficit to 36-26 with 16:57 to go, but Austin Peay would get no closer.

Hutchins-Everett, one of three Governors in double figures, was 7-of-17 from the floor and 3-of-3 from the stripe. Robinson contributed 11 points and was 5-of-6 from the free throw line. Copeland added 10 points and five rebounds.

Robinson came up with two of his team's four steals.

Austin Peay shot 90 percent (9-of-10) from the stripe after halftime and 90.9 percent (10-of-11) in the game.

The Governors forced 14 turnovers while committing only seven, their fewest since recording just six against Belmont on Jan. 28, 2021, a span of 44 games.
