MURRAY – Roman Domon tied a career-high with 29 points on Tuesday night to lead the Murray State men's basketball team to its third-straight victory to open the season, this time by a 94-57 score over Alcorn State inside the CFSB Center.

The Racers (3-0) now close their early-season three-game homestand on Friday night with a 7 p.m. tip against Texas Southern inside The Bank before going on the road for three neutral site contests in four days next week, beginning with an 11 a.m. tip next Tuesday in Memphis against Hofstra before a pair of contests next Thursday and Friday in the Baha Mar Championship.

Murray State has scored in bunches early this season, with the hot start marking the Racers first time scoring 90-plus points in three consecutive wins against Division I opposition since three straight wins back on January 3, 5 and 10, 2019.

Against Alcorn State (0-3), the Racers scored 51 first half points as Domon poured in 20 of his 29 in the opening 20 minutes. Murray State opened the night with the game's first seven points and 13 of the first 15 points overall, adding a 10-3 run later in the first half to push out to the 51-30 halftime lead. The Racers started the second half on a 6-2 run and never looked back, tallying one final 13-3 run down the stretch on the way to reaching the 90-point mark.

Domon finished the night shooting 9-of-14 from the floor with a pair of three-pointers, adding five rebounds, five assists, a block and a steal for a stuffed stat line, while Brayden Shorter followed up his 29-point game on Saturday with a 19-point performance on Tuesday, hitting five three-pointers. Christian Jones added eight points as four Racers – Jonas Boulefaa, Pavle Nikolic, Brigham Rogers and Ben Shtolzberg – each added six points, with Rogers grabbing a game-high 12 rebounds.

Muray State shot 47 percent overall with a 32 percent mark from three-point range, holding Alcorn State to 32 percent shooting with a 29 percent mark from deep. The Racers outrebounded the visitors 49-36, including grabbing 20 offensive rebounds for 20 second-chance points, while Alcorn State was forced into 21 turnovers that Murray State converted into 34 points off those giveaways.

Braylhan Thomas led Alcorn State with 15 points while Trey Thomas added 12 points as the second player in double-figures for the visitors in the loss.
