Men lose
tough ones in overtime
Look to finish strong
The men’s basketball team has been struggling this season in finding the rhythm it needs to win games in conference. The men traveled to Aruba over winter break and had fun in the sun along with some great opportunities to pick up some much needed wins, but saw their sunshine turn to ice when they traveled home. The men lost five in a row, three of which went into OT, including a nail biter against cross town rival Knox, before taking a game from Illinois College on Jan. 24.
The Scots’ first overtime loss came to a struggling Lake Forest team. The teams matched up well with each other, with both looking to find that spark to carry them over to the win column. The Scots shot well from the field (68%), but watched as the Forresters beat that with 78% shooting from the field. The men lost in overtime 84-77. The Scots put four men in double digit scoring: Anthony Beaird with 14 points and 4-8 from behind the arc, Chris Hebeler with 14, David Price put in 13, and Joe Terwelp added 11. Read More...
