WILMINGTON, N.C. (AP) Devontae Cacok and Chris Flemmings notched career highs with 34 points apiece, C.J. Bryce had a personal best with 25 points, and UNC Wilmington set a school record for points with a 126-113 win over Division-II Pfeiffer on Saturday.

Cacok, who tallied a career-best 19 rebounds - seven offensive - made 16 of 17 from the field, leading the Seahawks to a 60 percent (42-70) shooting performance. Flemmings was 12 of 18 overall and 6 of 9 on 3-pointers.

Flemmings' 3-pointer with two seconds left in the first half opened an eight-point lead, and the Seahawks never trailed in the second half, though Pfeiffer stayed within striking distance throughout.
