PITTSBURGH (AP) -- Freshman Derrick Colter scored a career-high
25 points and Duquesne led wire-to-wire in a 71-66 win over
Western Michigan on Wednesday night.



The Dukes (7-5) led 36-32 at the break and expanded their
cushion to 13 with 15:56 to go before the Broncos used a 10-0
run to close to 49-46.



Western Michigan (7-4) got within three once more, but didn't
threaten again until hitting four straight free throws to close
to 66-62 with 3 minutes left.



From that point, neither team made a field goal until the
Broncos' Austin Richie hit a 3-pointer with 13 seconds left for
the final margin. The Dukes made 5 of 10 free throws down the
stretch and the Broncos were 1 of 2.



Sean Johnson added 18 points, hitting 4 of 8 3-pointers as
Duquesne was 12 of 32 from long range.



Shayne Whittington led Western Michigan with 20 points and 10
rebounds.
