SWAC Men's Basketball Recaps - Dec. 11 12/12/2012 12:56:00 AM SWAC.org Auburn 92, Grambling St. 42 AUBURN, Ala. (AP) -- Chris Denson scored 13 points in his first appearance this season as Auburn defeated Grambling State 92-42 Tuesday night, snapping a four-game losing streak. Auburn (3-5) won for only the second time in seven games as Denson provided Frankie Sullivan, the leading scorer in the Southeastern Conference, some much-needed support. A junior guard, Denson missed the first seven games because he was academically ineligible. Last season, he averaged 8.7 points per game. Denson had seven by halftime against Grambling State. Sullivan, who came in averaging 19.7 points per game, had 10 points, five assists, four rebounds and three steals. Noel Johnson and Jordan Price added 14 points apiece off the bench and Rob Chubb had 10 points. Grambling State (0-7), which has lost all of its games on the road, was led by guard Derron Hobbs' 11 points. Leading scorer Terry Rose was held to eight points, half his average. After a 10-day break for final exams, Auburn started sluggish. The game was tied at 3 entering the first media timeout, and Auburn missed its first seven field goals. Auburn then went on an 18-5 run to grab a 21-8 lead. The game was never within single digits during the final nine minutes of the first half, and Auburn led 27-15 at halftime. Auburn scored 65 points in the second half, the most points since scoring 73 in a half against Troy State on Dec. 9, 1993. After the break, Auburn shot 67.6 percent (25 of 37) from the field and 64.3 percent (9 of 14) from beyond the 3-point arc. Auburn got 36 points off turnovers, 22 in the second half, with many of the points coming on fast-break dunks. Auburn also finished with six dunks, five in the second half. Saint Mary's (Cal) 120, Jackson St. 67 MORAGA, Calif. (AP) -- Matthew Dellavedova had 31 points for the second straight game and Saint Mary's roared past Jackson State 120-67 Tuesday night. Dellavedova, missing his career high by one point, also had eight assists and six rebounds for the Gaels (7-2). Saint Mary's also missed its highest-scoring game by a point; the Gaels scored 121 against Chicago State on Nov. 23, 2010. Brad Waldow scored a career-high 21 points and James Walker III added 14 points, matching his career high. Jorden Page had 13 points and Beau Levesque had 10 points and 10 rebounds for Saint Mary's, which shot 62 percent. Jackson State (0-6), which has played all of its games on the road, launched a 13-0 run midway through the first half. Kelsey Howard's layup got the Tigers within 25-19, but the Gaels ran off a 17-3 streak to put it away. Dundrecous Nelson led the Tigers with 27 points.
