No. 7 Houston rallies past Oklahoma State 82-75

Reserve Chase McCarty scored 14 of his 20 points in the second half and Houston rallied for an 82-75 win over Oklahoma State

3 DAYS AGO • Associated Press

Chase McCarty - Producing in expanded role McCarty notched 20 points (7-10 FG, 6-9 3Pt) and four rebounds over 22 minutes during Saturday's 82-75 win over Oklahoma State.

Impact It was a season-best scoring effort for McCarty, whose six triples were double his previous high mark for the season. The freshman reserve reached double figures for the third time this season with two of those efforts coming in the last three. His recent surge in production coincides with an uptick in playing time as McCarty has seen 20.3 minutes of action over the last four games after averaging just 9.8 minutes while recording two DNPs through the first 27 games.

Flemings, Sharp lead No. 7 Houston past Baylor 77-64

Kingston Flemings had 21 points and seven assists, Emanuel Sharp added 19 points and No. 7 Houston rallied for a 77-64 win over Baylor

6 DAYS AGO • Associated Press

Emanuel Sharp - Drains five from long range Sharp supplied 19 points (6-12 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound and three steals over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 77-64 victory over Baylor.

Impact Sharp connected on five triples and swiped three as the Cougars overcame a poor first half and pulled away late to take down the Bears. It was the fifth time this season Sharp has connected on at least five shots from downtown. Sharp entered the game having shot just 5-for-28 (17.9-percent) across his previous three games but he and the Cougars are hoping that this performance is a sign that he's rounding back into form in time for the postseason, with the Big 12 tournament starting up next week.

6 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Joseph Tugler - Picking up production Tugler accumulated 14 points (6-9 FG, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, one block and two steals over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 77-64 win over Baylor.

Impact After failing to reach double figures on the scoreboard in nine of 10 games, Tugler has now posted 14 points in back-to-back contests. The junior forward came off the bench for the first time this season as Kalifa Sakho received the start on senior night. The Cougars are hoping this recent spark is a sign of things to come as Tugler has seen a precipitous drop in his production in recent weeks. Even with the success over the last two games, Tugler is averaging just 6.8 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.3 blocks across his last 12 games.
