Drury tops Western Washington 107-97 in DII semis

Alex Hall scored a season-high 35 points, making seven 3-pointers to help Drury topple defending champion Western Washington 107-97 on Saturday in the NCAA Division II semifinal.

The Panthers' top scorer shook off foul trouble to finish 10 of 15 from the field, set the pace for Drury's 34-of-59 shooting (57.6 percent) and extend a school-record winning streak to 22. He came up a point shy of his career high but was two better than Thursday's quarterfinal effort against South Carolina-Aiken.
