Saturday, November 16, 2019

(ANN ARBOR) - Juwan Howard knows a thing or two about Michigan big men, so when he arrived in Ann Arbor, the rookie coach knew his first option was senior center Jon Teske. The senior proved the Michigan legend's point on Friday night. Teske 16 points and seven rebounds, and Zavier Simpson added 11 points as Michigan ran away with a 70-50 victory over Elon in a Battle 4 Atlantis campus game. The 7 foot 1 Teske had his way with Elon, whose biggest player is 6 foot 8. Michigan guard David DeJulius, a sophomore, set career highs with 10 points and eight rebounds, as Howard and the Wolverines improved to 3-0. Michigan shot 28 of 58 from the field (48.3%), while holding Elon to 20 for 59 (33.9%). Marcus Sheffield, a graduate transfer from Stanford, scored 22 points for Elon (2-2), which led 11-7 early as Michigan had five turnovers and three made baskets before the first media timeout. Eli Brooks added 10 points for Michigan, which had 34 points in the paint compared to 16 for Elon.
