Jaylen Barford also came off the bench for the first time and had 13 points, while Dustin Thomas added 13 and Dusty Hannahs 12 for Arkansas.I just wanted to maybe get started with the mindset of defense is what were going to hang our hats on, Anderson said. I thought those guys set the tone early on ... I thought (Macon and Barford) came off the bench and gave us a lift.Elijah Long led the Mountaineers (1-7) with 24 points, while Greg Alexander added 12 in the loss. Long got 17 of his points in the first half but finished 6 of 17 from the floor for Mount St. Marys, which shot 50 percent (15 of 30) in the first half but only 12 of 31 (38.7 percent) in the second.Long was also 10 of 10 on free throws and finished with seven assists for the Mountaineers, who are now 0-3 in their history against the Southeastern Conference.Mount St. Marys coach Jamion Christian was unavailable for comment following the game.Arkansas entered Monday following a six-day layoff after a disappointing 85-71 loss at Minnesota, and it did so with a new starting look -- with talented junior college transfers Barford and Macon coming off the bench.The duo had an immediate impact in their new roles, helping the Razorbacks to an early 13-2 run that pushed their lead to 18-12 after trailing early in the game. Barford and Macon had eight of the points for Arkansas during the run, and they had 15 first-half points on 6-of-10 shooting.I just tried to bring a lot of energy tonight, coming off the bench, Macon said. I tried to get what the first group had going and take it to another level. I just tried to play with a lot of energy and a lot of heart tonight.BIG PICTUREMount St. Marys: The Mountaineers shot the ball well for most of the game, but they simply wore down during the second half of their third road game in six days -- two days after a 64-47 loss at Michigan. Mount St. Marys doesnt play its first home game until Saturday. You could see the wear and tear take effect, Anderson said.Arkansas: The Razorbacks have to be pleased with the comfortable bounce-back win, but there are still concerns about Kingsley -- the preseason Southeastern Conference Player of the Year. The senior entered Monday averaging 9.8 points and 7.3 rebounds per game, off his 15.9/9.3 lines of a season ago. Kingsley once again struggled to find his offensive role on Monday, finishing with nine points on 3-of-8 shooting, but he did have a season-high 13 rebounds.BLOCK PARTYKingsley had one block on Monday, and he now has 20 on the season. The senior entered the game second in the country with an average of 4.8 blocks per game, more than 220 of the 351 Division I teams.DRIVING DUSTYHannahs finished 4 of 14 from the field and 0 of 5 on 3-pointers, the first time the senior has failed to connect from behind the arc in a game since Feb. 13 against Mississippi.

Austin on Thursday.---More AP college basketball: http://collegebasketball.ap.org Thomas Hickey Islanders Jersey . -- Its been a long road back for Sean Bergenheim. Pat LaFontaine Jersey . The nimble-footed quarterback got his wish, dashing through the snow and a weary defence all the way into the NCAA record book. http:///...kl-islanders-jersey/ . -- Team after team passed on Andre Ellington in the draft. BERKELEY, Calif. -- California coach Cuonzo Martin is adamant that Charlie Moore has to do a better job handling the ball and Martin has repeatedly emphasized that to his freshman point guard.As long as Moore keeps scoring like he is, though, Martin and the Golden Bears are willing to live with the occasional turnover -- even on a night when he had five of them.Moore scored 22 points including a banked 3-pointer from just inside halfcourt and California beat UC Davis 86-61 on Saturday.You have to take care of the ball, especially at the point guard position, Martin said. He makes adjustments because he watches film all the time. He understands it. Hes not out there making turnovers just to make them. Hes trying to make plays, and as long as hes aggressive thats fine.Moore, who has been starting all season, led California on an 18-3 run in the first half with a pair of steals and two layups. He later scored off another Davis turnover later in the half before banking in a 45-foot buzzer-beating 3-pointer.It felt good when I released it, Moore said. Thats why I followed through and ran down the court with it. I was just trying to make sure I hit it.Moore finished with four steals to overcome his five turnovers.Grant Mullins added 17 points and four rebounds to help make up for an off night by Ivan Rabb as the Golden Bears (8-2) won their 26th consecutive home game, matching the longest streak in school history.The Bears winning streak is the fourth-longest in the nation and matches the record set from Dec. 27, 1958-Dec. 16, 1960. California last lost at Haas Pavilion to Oregon on Feb. 25, 2015.In most cases with players those things dont set in until they leave school years later, Martin said. Its a good thing but still, a lot of work to be done.Davis committed 21 turnovers and put up liittle resistance in the first game between the two teams since 2010. Brock Nelson Islanders Jersey. Chima Moneke had a career-high 24 points and 10 rebounds, and Brynton Lemar scored 14 for the Aggies (5-5), who closed within 44-30 early in the second half before the Bears pulled away.BIG PICTUREDavis has to be feeling good as it nears the end of its seven-game road trip -- the teams longest since moving to Division I in 2008. Although they were outsized and a step slower for most of the game the Aggies showed some grit coming out of halftime and kept it interesting. Had they played that way the entire night the outcome might have been different. As it is, second-year coach Jim Les squad has dropped three of four.California was out of sync much of the night and, despite the score, couldnt put Davis away until late in the second half. Thats been an ongoing issue for the Bears and one that could be a problem with the Pac-12 portion of the schedule coming up. Good thing the young players came up big. Rabb was uneven with his shot and was hindered with foul trouble. Bird gave the Bears an early spark then fizzled out.FACTS AND FIGURESRabb, the Bears leading rebounder and third-highest scorer, had an uneven night shooting was held to six points and four rebounds before fouling out late in the second half. . California leads the all-time series against Davis 32-0. . Davis scored only 18 points in the first half. .
