Jacks Lose Thriller at Home

Ashland, WI -

The Jacks hosted Upper Midwest Athletic Conference Opponent the Bethany Lutheran College Vikings tonight at home.

The Jacks fell behind early to start the first half, as the Vikings would start the game on a 7-2 run. However, it didn't take the Jacks long to find their offensive rhythm as they quickly took the lead with a 10-0 run of their own. The Vikings came back to tie it up, but the Jacks again regained the lead. The Jacks continued to hit their shots and built their lead to ten over the Vikings. The Jacks went into halftime with a 35-28 lead intact.

The Vikings struck first to start the second half, eventually getting to within one of the Jacks. The teams would trade leads multiple times throughout the second half, as they would trade shots with one another. The Jacks started to pull away with a 53-47 lead over the Vikings, but the Vikings would rally back and tie it up at 58-58. A four point play by the Vikings with under a minute remaining in the game would give them a lead that they wouldn't lose. The Jacks would fall by a final score of 70-63.

Modesta Britten led the Jacks with 19 points, while Brandon Galland recorded 17. Britten led the team with 5 rebounds, while Ben Arqueros Jr. and Hunter Moe each grabbed 4.
