Noah Carter scored 18 points to lead Missouri to a 78-70 home win over Loyola-Maryland on Saturday in Columbia, Mo.

Alonso Faure had 18 points and eight rebounds, D'Angelo Stines scored 14 points and David Brown III added 11 points in defeat for Loyola (1-5), which has lost four in a row.

Faure was 6 of 7 from the field.

Missouri shot 44.8 percent from the field overall (26 of 58), 39.3 percent from 3-point range (11 of 28) and forced 18 turnovers.

Loyola shot 44.6 percent overall (25 of 56), 33.3 percent from 3-point range (10 of 30) and held a 41-34 rebounding advantage over the Tigers.

Missouri held a 47-45 lead with 12:53 remaining in the game before it separated itself from there.

The Tigers went on a 12-4 run over the next 2:46 to take a 59-46 lead with 10:07 left.

Loyola didn't fade, cutting the Missouri lead to eight at 70-62 with 4:38 remaining after a 3-pointer by Deon Perry.

Missouri had a response, as Carter converted a three-point play with 3:33 to give the Tigers a 75-62 lead.

Loyola stayed within striking distance, cutting Missouri's lead to 76-68 with 1:25 remaining after a free throw from Faure.

However, that would be as close as Loyola would get the rest of the way.

Missouri sprinted out to a big lead in the first half, going up 29-9 with 8:27 remaining until halftime.

But Loyola made a furious rally before intermission.

Trailing by 18 points with 5:48 left in the first half, the Greyhounds ended the first half on an 18-4 run to make it 35-31 Missouri at halftime.
