James Anderson scored 30 points and was one of six Oklahoma State players in double figures Wednesday night as the Cowboys defeated Southern 93-61 in the second round of the Las Vegas Invitational. Though the Cowboys (2-0) were dominant in the second half, their 3-point shooting was a concern early. Oklahoma State connected on just 3-of-16 attempts behind the arc in the first 20 minutes but still held a 44-30 advantage at halftime. Southern (0-2) took its biggest lead, 13-10, before the Cowboys responded with 11 unanswered points, including seven straight from Anderson, who also finished with 10 rebounds. Marshall Moses added 14 points and 13 rebounds, Obi Muonelo contributed 12 points while Matt Pilgrim, Ray Penn and Keiton Page each chipped in with 11. Oklahoma State will meet Bradley in the semifinals of the tournament in Las Vegas on Nov. 27.
