Sanijay Watts surpassed the 1,000-point milestone in his UCM career on Wednesday night.

 

The Mules rolled to an 82-64 win over Emporia State on Wednesday night at the UCM Multipurpose Building, and in the process hit several milestones, including head coach Kim Anderson’s school-record tying 178th win.

Anderson matched UCM Hall of Famer Tad Reid, who was 178-110 in 15 seasons from 1923-38. Anderson’s career record now sits at 178-60 in only his eighth season. Anderson also wrapped up his fifth 20-win season in the last six years, matching Lynn Nance for the most years in that category. It was the 22nd 20-win season ever at UCM.

The Mules are now 20-1 overall with the win, the best start through 21 games since 1980 when UCM started 25-1. The Mules remain atop the MIAA with a 13-1 league mark, and also clinched a berth in the MIAA Tournament with the victory.

Individually, senior forward Sanijay Watts became the 19th player in school history to surpass the 1,000-point milestone, and only the eighth two-year player to do it. He put up 24 points on the night and now sits at 1,005. Getting overshadowed was a career night from junior guard Ryan Harris, who put up a career-high 28 points in the contest.

Mules are idle from game competition until next Wednesday, Feb. 10th, when they hit the road to Topeka, Kan., for a league battle with Washburn at 7:30 p.m.
