Pittsburgh 81, Robert Morris 61
PITTSBURGH — Ashton Gibbs scored 21 points and Cameron Wright added a career-high 13 as No. 17 Pittsburgh rolled past Robert Morris 81-71 on Sunday.
The Panthers (5-1) won their third straight by shooting 55 percent from the field in the first half and playing with a defensive intensity they have lacked at times early in the season.
The addition of rangy freshman forward Khem Birch into the lineup helped. Birch finished with eight points, 11 rebounds and six blocks while making his second career start.
Cordon Williams led Robert Morris (4-2) with 19 points but the Panthers clamped down on Robert Morris star Velton Jones, who came in averaging 19.7 points but was held to 10 on 1-of-14 shooting.
Pitt improved to 29-0 all-time against its crosstown rival and 69-0 against Northeast Conference opponents and won despite missing forwards Lamar Patterson and Dante Taylor, who sat out their second straight games, though for vastly different reasons. Patterson is serving a two-game suspension for a violation of team rules while Taylor continues to struggle with migraines.
Missouri 88, Binghamton 59
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Kim English scored a career-high 29 points and Missouri routed winless Binghamton.
The Big 12’s leading 3-point shooter hit 7 of 10 from behind the arc. His six 3s and 22 first-half points helped Missouri (6-0) to a 49-31 lead.
Ben Dickinson led Binghamton (0-5) with 15 points.
English, a 6-foot-6 senior, entered the game hitting 60 percent of his 3-pointers. Normally a shooting guard, English is the Tigers’ starting power forward after Laurence Bowers’ season-ending knee injury in the preseason. English’s previous career-high was 26 against Chattanooga in 2009
Ricardo Ratliffe added 18 points on 7-of-7 shooting for Missouri.
