Virginia rebounded from Monday nights ass-kicking given them by Washington and behind Mike Scott’s 27 points they beat Jeff Capel’s Oklahoma Sooners 74-56.
Oklahoma was led by Tyler Neal’s 16 points off the bench, and Cade Davis’ 15, but their 17 turnovers proved too costly on the afternoon as Virginia looked like a completely different team than the day before.
Mike Scott made a nice contribution both defensively (15 rebounds), and at the free-throw line where he was 13-15 at the charity-stripe. The Hoos had only 9 turnovers.
Virginia plays the fifth-place game of the Maui Classic tomorrow against the Wichita State Shockers. Go Hoos!
