ST. THOMAS, U.S. Virgin Islands -- Creighton jumped on Washington State early and the Cougars could never recover.But the Bluejays confidence is still showing, especially after their 103-77 victory over Washington State on Friday in the opening round of the Paradise Jam tournament.Huff scored 19 points, Marcus Foster added 16 points and Justin Patton 10 for Creighton (3-0), which took command early in leading by as many as 34 points against the overmatched Cougars (2-1).Our confidence is sky high, but what weve done in these first three games, weve got to put that behind us now, Huff said. Were just going to have to focus on our game plan, and see if we can get another win (Sunday).Conor Clifford scored 29 points, Ike Iroegbu and Charles Callison had 11 each, and Josh Hawkinson added 10 for Washington State (2-1).Creighton led from the outset, going up by double figures less than seven minutes into the first half en route to a 60-34 halftime lead.I liked the way our starters set the tone, Bluejays coach Greg McDermott said. Our pace was good early, which is always good to see, and then the guys coming off the bench gave us a lift. Theres a lot of positives from tonight.Creighton took its biggest lead midway through the second half, going up 80-46 on Tyler Clements layup with 13:30 remaining.The Bluejays would then break the 100-point mark for the first time this season with 1:50 left on Ronnie Harrell Jr.s jumper.They were just relentless in their pursuit, Washington State coach Ernie Kent said.

Their ability to run, their ability to shoot, their ability of their bigs to get up and down, thats a good team.BIG PICTUREWashington State: Turnovers were a problem for the Cougars. After giving up 16 total in their first two games, they had 16 Friday, leading to 23 points for Creighton.Creighton: Its a good start for the Bluejays, who are trying to win their fourth regular-season tournament title under McDermott.

SUNRISE, Fla. -- The Florida State Seminoles had a hunch even before they took the court Saturday they might be tested by Manhattan, and they were correct.Our locker room is right next to theirs, so we heard them before the game just yelling, Seminoles guard Dwayne Bacon said. We recognized they definitely had a lot more energy than we did in the first half.Bacon scored 12 of his 16 points in the second half to help No. 23 Florida State pull away for its seventh consecutive victory, beating Manhattan 83-67 in the opening game at the Orange Bowl Classic.Bacon took only one shot in the first half but embraced coach Leonard Hamiltons advice to help the Seminoles pull away after halftime.Coach Hamilton said I should just go to the middle and attack, said Bacon, chosen the games most valuable player for the second straight year.The taller Seminoles dominated inside, scoring 46 points in the paint, drawing 31 fouls and building a 36-23 edge in rebounds. They switched to a zone after the Jaspers shot 57 percent to trail 46-41 at halftime.A very tough game for us, Hamilton said. I thought they were well prepared. We had a hard time staying in front of them. They were a little quicker than we were in the first half. Second half we made some adjustments.The Seminoles (11-1) are off to their best start in school history, and the winning streak is their longest since 2012.Our team is still young, still growing, Hamilton said. Were very fortunate to be 11-1. I think we have a lot of room for improvement. This is a good game to learn from.The Seminoles have won in the one-day Orange Bowl CClassic each of the past five seasons.ddddddddddddTheyre a team thats hard to stop for 40 minutes, Jaspers coach Steve Masiello said. They did all the little things I think will make them a tough team the rest of the year.Xavier Rathan-Mayes had 10 points and five assists for Florida State. Zavier Turner had 18 points and five assists for Manhattan (3-8), which hasnt beaten a ranked team since 1995.Three Jaspers had three or more fouls by halftime, and four finished with four fouls each, but Manhattans outside shooting kept the score from being even more lopsided. The Jaspers went 9 for 24 on 3-pointers, and the Seminoles went 2 for 6.BIG PICTUREThe Seminoles scored at least 83 points for the fourth straight game.
