Rapid City, South Dakota - The Cowboys used a balance scoring attack to run past South Dakota Mines 66-55 on Thursday night. With the win, NMHU is 12-15 overall and 5-14 in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference.

The Cowboys led for all but the first 2:24 of Thursday night's game as they took their first lead on a Kenard Richardson three pointer to go up 5-3. That lead was extended to 37-30 at the half.

The second half saw NMHU push that lead to as many as 13 points down the stretch as they won for the fifth time this season away from home.
