With multiple players drilling 3-pointers from all over the court, Fort Wayne stunned Indiana for the second year in a row as the Mastodons earned a 92-72 victory Monday night at Assembly Hall.

Fort Wayne, which shocked a third-ranked Indiana squad on Nov. 22, 2016, repeated its feat Monday against a Hoosiers crew that exerted plenty of emotions 48 hours earlier while rallying to knock off No. 18 Notre Dame.

Fort Wayne (8-5) shot 17 of 30 from 3-point range as junior guard Kason Harrell (28 points, six 3-pointers) and senior guard Bryson Scott (26 points) led the way. Junior swingman Jon Konchar piled up 16 points, seven rebounds, seven assists and four 3-pointers while 6-foot-11 redshirt freshman Dylan Carl, who entered the night with just two 3-pointers to his credit, came off the bench to convert four 3-pointers for a career-high 14 points.

Indiana (6-6) shot just 4 of 24 on 3-pointers.

The Hoosiers got 17 points from senior guard Robert Johnson, moving him past Troy Williams, Victor Oladipo and Will Sheehey to assume 39th on the school's all-time list. Junior forward Juwan Morgan, the hero of the Notre Dame win, finished with 14 points and 12 rebounds.

Indiana owned a 37-36 edge at halftime as Johnson led the way with 13 points, including eight straight points in a 53-second stretch to erase Fort Wayne's early 13-8 lead. The Hoosiers shut down Scott (2 of 9) and Konchar (1 of 3), but Harrell drilled 4 of 6 3-pointers on his way to 16 first-half points.

The Hoosiers extended their margin to 40-36, but that lead faded away with a string of bad passes that the Mastodons turned into breakaway layups. In a 2-minute, 5-second span, Konchar took one coast-to-coast and Scott enjoyed two runouts to give Fort Wayne a 50-44 lead and force Indiana to take a timeout with 14:42 left.

When the Mastodons weren't getting easy layups, they were burying open 3-pointers from the corners and the wings. Fort Wayne hit 15 of its first 24 3-pointers to take a 70-53 lead with 10:25 to play.
