HIGH POINT, N.C. (AP) Abdoulaye Thiam had 22 points in High Point's 80-73 victory over American on Monday night.

Thiam shot 9 of 10 from the field and 4 for 5 from the line for the Panthers (5-0). D'Maurian Williams shot 7 for 14 (3 for 4 from 3-point range) and 4 of 4 from the free-throw line to add 21 points. Kimani Hamilton shot 5 of 10 from the field, including 1 for 3 from 3-point range, and went 7 for 11 from the line to finish with 18 points, while adding six rebounds.

The Eagles (1-4) were led by Elijah Stephens, who recorded 19 points and four assists. Matt Rogers added 17 points and six rebounds for American. Geoff Sprouse also had 16 points.
