Cooper scored a career-high 38 points in the victory, the most points scored by an OIT player since 2020 – becoming the 15th player in program history to score 38-or-more points in a game. He finished 13-of-18 from the field, while converting 12-of-13 free throws – adding nine rebounds.
The Hustlin’ Owls return home for the next four games, starting Friday night against Evergreen State.
