Boilers Pummel Mountaineers On National Stage
Purdue delivers most lopsided victory over Big 12 team in 26 years
A.J. Hammons battles for a loose ball with West
Virginia���s Juwan Staten. The Boilermakers did a
good job on Staten, holding him to eight points
(two under his average) and limited the visitors
to just one scorer in double figures.
D.J. Byrd grimaces as he appears to get an elbow across his face
by the Mountaineers��� Gary Browne. Purdue limited West Virginia
to just 29.3 percent shooting, a primary reason the game was not
close down the stretch.

Purdue 79, West Virginia 52
Mackey Arena, West Lafayette
Boilermaker big men Hammons and Sandi
Marcius celebrate during the Purdue onslaught.
Marcius had a thunderous dunk and actually
evened Hammons in scoring with four points
in Purdue���s biggest win over a Big 12 foe since
beating Kansas State 101-72 n 1987.
Much like he did in the closing seconds of Purdue���s Big Ten seasonopening win against Illinois 17 days earlier, Byrd takes to the floor
to retrieve a loose ball.
