After a net-popping opening night performance in the Skyhawk Classic, Roman Andrade has a tough act to follow.
His own.
Andrade poured in 30 points as New Mexico Highlands University defeated Grand Canyon University, 81-74, Friday in the men's basketball tournament at Fort Lewis College in Durango, Colo.
"This is a great first win of the season against a quality team," Joe Harge, Highlands head coach, said.
Andrade added five steals and four assists to his game- and season-high scoring performance. Mindaugas Markevicius finished with 15 points and Kelvin Franklin added 12 for the Cowboys.
Highlands (1-1) faces Calumet College at 3 this afternoon.
