DAYTONA BEACH -- Florida A&M stopped Morgan State's eight-game winning streak Saturday. The Bears were not likely to go winless in Florida.

Morgan State proved to be too big, too quick and too deep in defeating Bethune-Cookman 63-52 Monday at the Ocean Center. "I think they're the best team in the league. They're very talented," said B-CU coach Clifford Reed. "They're definitely one of the best teams for us to match up against. They're big and athletic."

B-CU tried to keep the game as close as possible by consistently holding the ball to the end of the 35-second clock, but the Bears out-rebounded the Wildcats 31-21, shot 46.5 percent from the field and hit 20 of 26 free throws.
