SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Joshua Patton was 8 of 11 from the floor for 19 points and Marcus Graves added 14 while dishing out 10 assists as Sacramento State shut down Division II Holy Names in the second half for an 81-56 victory on Tuesday night.

Patton also had three blocked shots and two steals. Graves recorded four steals and Izayah Mauriohooho-Le'afa chipped in with 15 points for the Hornets.
