DENVER, Colo. - The University of Northern Colorado men's basketball team jumped above the .500 mark for the first time this season by spanking Grand View (Iowa) 93-57 in the team's second of two games at the Metro State Runners Thanksgiving Classic. After the game was tied at six early in the first half, UNC (3-2) used a 16-2 run to open a commanding lead and build a 46-17 halftime advantage and never looked back.
