EVANSTON, Ill. (AP) -- Alex Olah scored 21 points, Tre Demps added 17, and Northwestern pulled away from Sacred Heart, 103-67, on Monday night for its eighth straight win.

Scottie Lindsey and Nathan Taphorn each added 11 points as the Wildcats (11-1) set a season high for scoring by shooting 61 percent (36-for-59) from the floor.

Olah became the 33rd player in Northwestern history to record more than 1,000 points in his career. He entered with 996.

Cane Broome had a game-high 26 points and Quincy McKnight added 15 for Sacred Heart (1-9), which dropped its ninth straight following a season-opening win over Quinnipiac. The Pioneers shot 40 percent (22 of 55).
