PITTSBURGH — Justin Champagnie’s hot start continued throughout as he turned a personal 8-0 run at the start of the game to a career-high-tying 21 points by the end of it as he helped Pitt beat Canisius, 87-79 on Monday afternoon.
Here’s Champagnie, Au’Diese Toney, Jeff Capel and Golden Griffins head coach Reggie Witherspoon after the Pitt win:
I liked the way Pitt responded after the time-out. Intensity on defense and smart play on offense. You just can’t defend Xavier and Trey one on one.
