The Minneapolis men’s basketball team closed out its gym in dominating fashion as it topped Riverland 83-47 Wednesday.

Minneapolis (20-5 overall, 9-1 MCAC South) hit 50 percent of its field goals and 50 percent of its threes.

“You could tell right away they were into it,” RCC head coach Dan Swift said. “They played well and we didn’t. It’s tough to win when your opponent is knocking down that many shots.”
