DE PERE - St. Norbert College exhibited symmetry in more ways than one as it claimed an 82-52 win over Illinois Institute of Technology in a Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference game at Mulva Family Fitness & Sports Center.

The Green Knights (10-4, 7-0 NACC) outscored the Scarlet Hawks 41-26 in each half. St. Norbert also had a balanced scoring effort, with 11 players cracking the scoring column and four players reaching double figures.

Illinois Tech made its first five field-goal attempts of the game but the Green Knights kept pace, holding an 11-10 lead after a Will Stuckey driving layup with 15:10 left. That hoop ignited a 12-0 run over the next 5:20, with five different players scoring. Jaeden Grade's 3-pointer gave St. Norbert a 39-19 lead with 3:51 left in the half, but the Scarlet Hawks closed out the period on a 7-2 run to trail 41-26 at the break.

The Scarlet Hawks would cut the deficit down to 10 points twice, the last at 43-33 with 17:18 remaining. The Green Knights then went on a 10-0 run to retake control, getting three free throws from Charlie Geske (pictured) and a streak-capping trey again from the hand of Grade with 13:07 left for a 53-33 advantage. St. Norbert kept the lead into the 20s for most of the rest of the game, with the lead eventually bulging to a game-high 33 points at 76-43 with 5:08 left on a Reid Rosseland layup.

St. Norbert shot 50.9 percent (29-for-57) from the floor and canned 11-for-25 (44 percent) three-point field-goal attempts. The Green Knights were also 13-for-17 (76.5 percent) from the free-throw line and held a 43-26 rebounding advantage. Stuckey finished with a game-high 15 points, while Geske added a career-high 13 points. Connor Pytleski added 11 points and Grade 10 points.
