Tyler Haws posts his best yet in USA's destruction of Norway

BYU's Tyler Haws put in his best performance of the World University games early Sunday morning as Team USA blasted Norway, 91-51, in the classification quarterfinals in Russia.

Haws scored 9 points on 3-6 shooting from the field, adding 3 rebounds and 1 steal to help USA to the big win. Because of losses to Australia and Canada in the preliminary round, Team USA was relegated to the classification (non-medal) tournament where it plays for 9th place.

Haws played 15 minutes in the contest after receiving a DNP against Australia and only 3 minutes against Canada. Hopefully his good performance will warrant continued playing time.

USA was led in scoring by Will Sheehey (Indiana) who scored 16 points on a 7-9 performance from the field. The Americans assisted on 29 of their 34 made field goals, led by 8 assists from Spencer Dinwiddie (Colorado).

Team USA plays in the classification semifinals against Germany on Monday at midnight, MT.
