The Mastodons are strutting in with some offensive muscle as they’ve averaged 82.7 points per game this season.

They were dealt a punishing 89-58 loss at the hands of the Wolverines. Having soared to a lofty 103 points in the game before, the Mastodons’ point total in this one was quite the letdown.
