| Erik Thomas weathered early foul trouble to lead the way with 18 points |
In their first home game against crosstown rival Tulane since the 2010-11 season, the Privateers (3-3) led by as many as 27 before securing a comfortable 74-59 win on Tuesday night.
New Orleans, using a balanced scoring attack and a swarming zone defense, never trailed in the contest, soaring to a 14-2 lead to start the evening. Erik Thomas led the offensive attack with 18 points. Christavious Gill and Travin Thibodeaux were integral as well with 14 points each.
