Central Michigan's Keene has NCAA Division I's first 50-point game since 2013

MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. (AP) - Marcus Keene, the NCAA's scoring leader, scored a career-high 50 points with 10 3-pointers and broke the game open with four 3s in the final 4:44 to help Central Michigan rally to a 101-92 win against Miami (Ohio) on Saturday.

It was the highest scoring DI game this season - topping Malik Monk's 47 points for Kentucky - and the first 50-plus-game since South Dakota State's Nate Wolters 53 on Feb. 7, 2013.

Keene's 10 3-pointers tied the school record set by Tommie Johnson in 1987 against Wright State.

Keene was 15-of-23 from the floor, including 10-of-15 from distance, and hit all 10 of his free-throw attempts for the Chippewas (12-7, 2-4 Mid-American).
