(AP) - Kemba Walker scored 28 points and Stanley Robinson added 25 as No. 12 Connecticut rolled past American International College 106-67 in an exhibition game Wednesday night, despite playing without starting guard Jerome Dyson.

Dyson, a senior, junior Donnell Beverly and freshman Jamal Coombs-McDaniel were held out of the opening exhibition because of problems with their eligibility paperwork. UConn announced before the game the players would not participate "pending evaluation of recently submitted paperwork pertaining to their annual eligibility certification."

Aikeem Vanderhorst scored 18 points and Isiah Wallace had 17 for the Yellow Jackets, a Division II team that finished 15-13 last season.
