WATERTOWN, Wis. -- Timothy Solarek of Maranatha Baptist Bible
College sank two clutch free throws with 12.7 seconds on the clock
to hand the Red Lions men's basketball team of Lincoln Christian
University a 65-62 defeat in the NCCAA Division II regional
tournament Friday evening.

After
leading at the half 31-28, LCU, the No. 3 seed, was not able to hold
off the No. 2-seeded host school in the second half as they evened
the score at 62-62 with one minute to play in the game. After MBBC
sank a free throw to take a 63-62 lead, the Red Lions were charged
with an offensive foul, giving up the ball and being forced to foul
Solarek, who made both from the charity stripe.
The Red Lions were led by Jon Wallace with 27 points and eight
rebounds, Kevin Watson with 14 points and six rebounds, and Chris
Lawson with nine points.
The Red Lions, who end their season play at 18-8, shot 44.6 percent
from the field and 66.7 percent from the free-throw line but were
outrebounded 37-34.
