Lincoln Christian College vs. Central Bible College

[FEB. 19, 2001]  Lincoln Christian College’s men’s basketball team traveled to Springfield, Mo., to play against Central Bible College on Saturday afternoon. Central won 83-54.

 Coach Randy Kirk commented on the game, saying, "Any time you shoot 28 percent from the floor and 12 percent of frees, you’re not gonna win." He went on to explain the loss: "Part of that is attributed to their defense, and the other part is we’re not running our offense with any kind of precision — and it’s the wrong time of the year for that to be happening."

Matt Clark led the attack with 23 points. He shot field goals and 11 free throws. Donnie Bowman and Dante Watson helped the team with 12 points and nine points respectively. Bowman made two field goals and eight free throws. Watson scored three field goals and free throws. Jim Turney and David Simmons each made one 3-pointer. Antoni Okusami and Jake Raymer each shot two points for Lincoln. The Preachers made two 3-pointers, 13 field goals and 22 free throws total.

Central Bible College scored a total of four 3-pointers, 27 field goals and 17 free throws.

This Thursday, Lincoln’s Preachers enter the regional in Dubuque, Iowa. Their first-round game is against Emmaus.
