 The Cage was sent into a frenzy just over the midway point of the second half when Sean Carter had back-to-back dunks on fastbreaks that came off steals forced by the UMass defensive pressure. The first came off a Riley lob and the second Carter took in himself from midcourt to give UMass a 24-point lead, 70-46 and force a Holy Cross timeout with 8:06 to play.
