NORFOLK, Virginia -- Devin Martin scored 25 points Monday and Maryland Eastern Shore thoroughly dismantled Norfolk State in the second half of an 82-64 come-from-behind victory.The Hawks (14-12, 7-4 MEAC) quickly erased an early 12-point deficit and seized control, using a 12-2 first-half run to narrow the gap and a 22-4 second-half outburst to grow it in the other direction.
Often hoisting barely contested layups against a chronically late defense, UMES shot a scorching 62.1 percent from the floor in the second half and 48.3 percent for the game.
RaShid Gaston scored 24 points for the Spartans (16-10, 9-2), who retain sole possession of second place in the MEAC.
The Spartans started like gangbusters, with Gaston’s three-point play on an alley-oop dunk starting a 12-2 run to open the game.
