Cleveland State used an 8-0 run, highlighted by a banked-in basket by KJ Debrick, to cut the Wildcats' advantage to 58-43.
But Hawkins' step-back three stopped the rally, and on the next Wildcats' possession, Hausen hit his 3-three pointer of the game as Kansas State took a 64-46 lead.
A deflection and a steal led to N'Guessan's third jam of the game on a fast break and a 68-48 lead with 4:55 left to play. Cleveland State closed the game on an 8-0 run as both teams emptied their benches with substitutions.
