The River Hawks fared much better than Friday, when they lost 113-54 to No. 4 Gonzaga in Spokane, Wash.

Martin Somerville's driving layup with 12:27 left gave the River Hawks a 44-42 lead, their first since midway through the first half.

A 3-pointer by Ihenacho broke a 53-all tie with 7:40 remaining and gave the Huskies the lead for good.
