TJ Weeks Jr. also had 13 points, eight rebounds and two steals. Rider was held to 22 second-half points after scoring 42 in the opening 20 minutes. “I thought our guys did some good things. We got outrebounded. We needed to make shots when they were making shots,” coach Kevin Baggett said. “Just have to play better defense, especially in the second half when they started to cut the lead and get back into the game and we needed to get more consecutive stops. We didn’t do that today.” Rider hosts Saint Peter’s next Friday. Creighton 79, Seton Hall 54 OMAHA, Neb. — Ryan Kalkbrenner’s 23 points helped Creighton defeat Seton Hall.
