Morthland evens record at 9-9 with convincing win over Concordia

The Morthland College Patriots evened their season record at 9-9 Wednesday night with a loipsided home win over St. Louis Concordia Seminary, 101-48.


Despite missing several key players, the Preachers of Concordia battled the entire game.  Every Morthland player scored to cruise to the runaway
victory.  Yavario Smith again led the Patriots with 26 tallies, driving the lane at will.  Murphysboro’s Hoston Gee had his first over- twenty
game with exactly 20, Will Carmickle chipped in 17, Roby Boatright 15 and Michael Smith hit on 11.  Murphysboro’s Jacob Stanton had a personal
season-high 13 rebounds. Morthland led 51-25 at the end of the first half, with both teams having an uncommon almost-identical second stanza.

The Patriots next play two road games this week-end, with a Friday night tilt against Crown College in Knoxville, TN, then driving across town for
a Saturday, Feb. 8th next day match-up with Johnson College, also in Knoxville.
