Lourdes remained undefeated away from home on Saturday afternoon as the 14^th-ranked Gray Wolves downed Rochester (Mich.) 82-59 inside Garth Pleasant Arena in Rochester Hills, Mich.
 
"We defended pretty well and they only shot 18% from three which is something they like to do," head coach Dennis Hopson said afterwards.  "We also did a good job of rebounding, holding a 49-26 advantage." 
 
Shaunn Monroe (Charleston, W. Va./Fairborn [Ohio] H.S.) poured in a career-high 30 points, including a perfect 8-for-8 from the free throw line while Stephen Coleman Jr. (Toledo, Ohio/Hillcrest Prep H.S.) added a double-double with 12 point and 11 rebounds.  Nic Borojevich (Swanton, Ohio/Swanton H.S.) and Joey Holifield (Toledo, Ohio/Cardinal Stritch H.S.) gave Lourdes four double figure scorers with 11 and 10 points respectively.
 
"Shaunn and Steve both played great games," Hopson added.
