Trey Kaufman-Renn scored a game-high 18 points as No. 6 Purdue rolled to an 80-45 victory over visiting Marshall on Saturday afternoon in West Lafayette, Ind.

With starting center Daniel Jacobsen out with a leg injury, Purdue adjusted its lineup as Camden Heide and Myles Colvin got their first career starts and each scored 13 points.

Nate Martin scored nine points and grabbed seven rebounds to lead Marshall.

Heide wasted no time in making the most of the opportunity, scoring eight straight Purdue points. He punctuated his scoring spurt with back-to-back 3-pointers for a 20-10 lead.

Purdue (5-1) bounced back from its first non-conference regular-season loss since 2020 on Tuesday at No. 15 Marquette with swarming defensive pressure.

The Thundering Herd (3-2) was held to 30 percent shooting from the field (16-for-53) and 12 percent shooting from behind the arc (4-for-32). Marshall had 19 turnovers, which led to 23 Purdue points.

Meanwhile, Purdue shot 50 percent from the field (24-for-48) and 6-for-16 (37.5 percent) from 3-point land.

The Boilermakers turned Marshall’s turnover into a fastbreak attack when Braden Smith (nine assists, three steals) scored a steal and set up Raleigh Burgess (six points, five rebounds) on a backdoor for a two-handed slam. The dunk gave the Boilermakers a 28-12 lead with 9:26 left in the half.

Purdue scrambled and shifted in its man-to-man defense and wasted no time in stymieing the Thundering Herd into a shot-clock violation as the visitors went scoreless in five minutes.

Martin’s putback gave Purdue a 35-21 cushion en route to a 39-24 halftime lead.

Kaufman-Renn followed Heide’s first-half lead with a scoring binge of his own as he scored eight straight points, building Purdue’s lead to 47-27 with 16:42 left in regulation time.

An offensive rebound set up Colvin’s corner 3-pointer as Purdue took its first 30-point lead at 63-32 with 10:40 remaining.
