It took the Eagles over five minutes to score their first basket of the game and it would only be an uphill battle the rest of the way for them as the Wildcats outscored them 52-25 in the first half.
The Eagles would try to come back in the second half, but the damage was already done.
Shackeel Butters notched his fourth double-double of the season with 22 points and 12 rebounds.
Williams shot 36.1% from the field (26-72), 15.4% from the three-point line (2-13), and 58.3% from the free-throw line (7-12).
