(WXYZ) — Antoine Davis matched his season high with 39 points - breaking the Detroit Mercy career scoring record in the process - in the Titans' 85-60 win over Milwaukee Friday night.

Davis entered the night 35 points shy of the previous career record of 2,319 by Rashad Phillips.

"I didn't want to think about it, but then I did," Davis said when asked about breaking the record. "But I didn't try to let it get to me as much, because I was still trying to win the game at the end of the day. So then when it happened, it was just an unreal feeling."

Davis, who averaged 22.2 points per game entering Friday night, also scored 39 points in a loss to Hofstra on November 27.
