College Hoops: SCC Men, Women Fall

SCC Blackhawks

THE S-C-C MEN’S BASKETBALL TEAM WAS ON THE ROAD LAST NIGHT (WED) IN OTTUMWA…

 

UNFORTUNATELY FOR THE BLACKHAWKS, INDIAN HILLS WON THE FIRST BATTLE IN “THE WAR ON 34″ BY A SCORE OF 82-TO-70.

THE HAWKS PLAYED WELL, LEADING FOR MOST OF THE FIRST HALF AND AT ONE POINT TAKING AN 8-POINT LEAD. INDIAN HILLS STARTED THE SECOND HALF WELL AND PUSHED THE LEAD OVER 10 SEVERAL TIMES, BUT S-C-C WAS ABLE TO GET THE GAME DEAD-LOCKED AT 67 WITH JUST OVER 4 MINUTES REMAINING AFTER A LONG THREE-POINTER FROM JOE SCOTT.

AFTER THAT, HOWEVER, IT WAS ALL INDIAN HILLS AS THE WARRIORS ENDED THE GAME ON A 15-3 RUN TO CLAIM THEIR 20TH WIN OF THE SEASON.

THE BLACKHAWKS RECEIVED STRONG GAMES FROM TYREE OROSCO AND JORDAN STEVENS, WHO COMBINED FOR 37 POINTS. JOE SCOTT AND DENZEL McCAULEY CONTRIBUTED A COMBINED 22 POINTS IN THE SECOND HALF ALONE.

S-C-C IS NOW 19-AND-5 OVERALL AFTER LAST NIGHT’S (WED) LOSS, WITH A REGION RECORD OF 2-AND-2. THE HAWKS WILL NOW BE OFF UNTIL NEXT WEDNESDAY WHEN THEY PLAY IOWA WESTERN AT HOME.

 

THE S-C-C WOMEN ALSO LOST A ROAD GAME WEDNESDAY, LOSING AT #3 KIRKWOOD 72-TO-51.

 

ELSEWHERE IN MEN’S COLLEGE HOOPS WEDNESDAY NIGHT… IOWA STATE FELL TO TEXAS TECH 56-51… DRAKE UPSET #17 CREIGHTON 74-69… AND NORTHERN IOWA BEAT SOUTHERN ILLINOIS 58-45…
