[NOV. 24, 2003]  The Lincoln Christian men's basketball team picked up their first home victory of the season Saturday afternoon with an 82-41 win versus Grace University of Omaha, Neb.

 LCC shot a blazing 55 percent from the field, but the Royals kept it close by converting second-chance points and scoring off turnovers. In the second half, the home squad came out and forced turnovers with a high-tempo defense and were able to push a 21-point lead

"This is a win that our team needed after dropping two in a row," Lincoln coach Searby commented.

"I thought this is the best all-around game that we have had so far," he added. "Brian had a spectacular game, but it's because he got other players involved."

The Preachers were led statistically by Brian Dunaway's 30 points, 10 rebounds, and five assists.

Travis Chase had a double-double once again, with 10 points and 13 boards. Tim Schultz chipped in 10 on 5-of-7 from the field.

The LCC men moved their record to 4-2. They play tonight (Monday) at 7:30 at Robert Morris in Springfield.
