SYRACUSE, N.Y. - James Southerland scored 18 points, Michael Carter-Williams had 16 points and seven assists, and No. 9 Syracuse beat Division II Pace 99-63 in an exhibition game on Thursday night.

The Orange began with a starting lineup of Carter-Williams, a sophomore, and senior Brandon Triche at guard, sophomore Rakeem Christmas and junior C.J.

Jonathan Merceus had 15 points and nine rebounds to lead Pace and David Eismeier had 14, all in the second half.
