Evan Wieck and Ryan Pearson scored five points each in a 13-5 run to end the first half and give Navy a 32-28 lead. Navy led throughout the second half and was ahead by 11 with four minutes to go.

Navy shot 9-of-24 on 3-pointers and outshot Morgan State in the game, 47 percent (23-of-49) to 39 percent (19-of-18).

The Midshipman out-rebounded the Bears by a commanding 37-24 margin and scored 28 points inside the paint.
