MEN: (3/15/19) The 4th Seed men Lions defeated 5th Seed Dallas Baptist University—JUST BARELY—to advance to the Semi-Final Round. The game opened with DBU on fire and hitting four 3’s to streak ahead 13—5 after six minutes of play. Then things “evened-out” during most of the game, with the lead changing hands periodically until the Patriots hit consecutive baskets to take a four point lead with a minute to play; things looked bleak! However, Carson Tuttle bombed a “3”—Rodney Brown dropped in a free throw—Trey Conrod drove the lane for a “2”—Lions played tenacious defense—DBU fired a desperation “3” that missed at the buzzer! Final score: Lions 72 and Patriots 70. Willie Rooks led the team with 21 points, and Austin Grandstaff led with 6 rebounds and also added 11 points. WHAT a GAME!
