PITTSBURGH (AP) - Aaron Gray had 15 points and 12 rebounds despite an off shooting night and No. 2 Pittsburgh quickly built a 20-point lead against shootings-depleted city rival Duquesne before easing to a 73-56 victory Wednesday night.
The 7-foot Gray, shooting nearly 70 percent for the season, missed seven of 13 shots but was too much for a Duquesne team that is down to nine scholarship players following the on-campus shooting of five players in September.
With reserve forwards Tyrell Biggs and Sam Young each scoring 10 points against the undersized Dukes, Pitt improved to 9-0 for the fifth straight season, and a fourth consecutive time under coach Jamie Dixon.
