#10 Syracuse Orange (4-0)

Triche leads Orange over Cornell 88-73

SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) Freshman guard Brandon Triche scored a season-high 21 points, Andy Rautins added 18, and No. 10 Syracuse beat upstate foe Cornell 88-73 on Tuesday night.

It was the 32nd straight win in the series for Syracuse (5-0), but the Orange didn't settle it until the second half.

Unranked a week ago, the Orange catapulted into the Top 25 after beating then-No. 13 California and then-No. 6 North Carolina by an average score of 91-72. They had a more difficult time early with the Big Red (2-2), who beat Alabama and Massachusetts on the road before losing at home Friday night to Seton Hall. (MORE)
