LEWISBURG, Pa. (AP) Zach Thomas scored 22 points, Stephen Brown added 19 and Bucknell defeated Ball State 87-83 on Wednesday night.

Tayler Persons scored 21 points to lead Ball State (1-4). Kyle Mallers and Zach Gunn added 13 points apiece.

Moore's layup with 2:43 to play capped a 7-0 spurt that gave the Bison an 80-79 lead. The Cardinals regained the lead on Persons' layup, but Moore answered with a pair of free throws and a dunk as Bucknell closed the game on a 7-2 surge.
