ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — Elliot Cadeau scored 10 of his 19 points in the opening minutes of the first half and Yaxel Lendeborg had 13 of 15 points in the second half, leading No. 3 Michigan to an 86-72 win over Indiana on Tuesday night. The Wolverines (17-1, 7-1 Big Ten) led by 17 points mid way through the first half and by 25 points in the second half of a game that wasn’t in doubt after a one-sided start. The Hoosiers (12-7, 3-5) began by missing 14 of 15 shots and finished with a fourth straight loss under first-year coach Darian DeVries. Indiana’s Tucker DeVries scored 15, Nick Dorn had 14 points, Sam Alexis and Reed Bailey scored 11 points apiece. Lamar Wilkerson was held to a season-low eight points on 3 of 10 shooting after averaging nearly 24 points in previous Big Ten games for the Hoosiers. Michigan is known for its offense in Dusty May’s second season — averaging 93 points to rank among the country’s highest-scoring teams — but its nationally ranked defense was also on display against Indiana. The Hoosiers were held scoreless until Bailey made a layup 5:41 into the game and they were 0 of 10 on 3-pointers before Dorn made a shot from beyond the arc with 8:23 left in the first half. Michigan entered the game ranked No. 2 in field-goal defense, holding opponents to 36% shooting, and Lendeborg was closely guarding the Hoosiers on the perimeter and helping on the interior to lead a swarming scheme. Aday Mara scored 13 and Trey McKenney had 10 for the Wolverines. Up next Indiana visits Rutgers on Friday night. Michigan hosts Ohio State on Friday night. ...read more read less
