TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - Reggie Kohn scored 17 points and Will McDonald and Jimmy Baxter each had 16 as South Florida beat Houston 62-47 Saturday.
Kohn also had seven assists and six steals for South Florida (13-9, 6-5 Conference USA), which improved to 12-1 at the Sun Dome.
Jeremee McGuire scored nine points to lead Houston (6-15, 4-6), which has lost four consecutive games. Teammate Louis Truscott, the conference leader in rebounding, grabbed a game-high 13 rebounds and scored seven points.
