The NAIA Division II
top-ranked Huntington University Foresters (16-2) had no trouble
handling Siena Heights University (3-10) as they downed the Saints
100-67.
Huntington turned a
20-19 lead at the 13:16 mark of the first half into a 38-23 advantage
with an 18-4 run over a five minute span to take command of the game.
Another 14-4 spurt over the final six minutes of the half gave the
Foresters a 56-32 lead at the break and they never looked back.
Huntington pushed its lead to 31 over the first seven minutes of the
second half, but the offense stalled for a few minutes when numerous
offensive foul calls kept both teams from getting into any kind of
offensive rhythm. The two teams traded baskets over the final 10
minutes of the game leading to the 33-point victory for the
Foresters.
Huntington’s Alex Kock led all scorers with 26 points and 10 rebounds,
his fourteenth double-double of the season. Kyle Ganton and Doug
Sheckler joined Kock in double figures with 20 and 18 points
respectively. Victor Hamilton hit for 20 to lead the Saints. The
Foresters won the battle of the boards 30-19 and committed just 13
turnovers to 10 for Siena Heights.
