Cardinals Run Into Hot UW-Parkside Team, Fall 80-66

The No. 25 William Jewell men's basketball suffered a 80-66 loss at the hands of Wisconsin-Parkside on Thursday night in Kenosha, Wis. The Cardinals fall to 15-3 overall and 5-3 in the Great Lakes Valley Conference. 

HOW IT HAPPENED
  • The Cardinals and Rangers traded short lived leads through much of the first half with neither team able to grab more than a four point advantage. Jewell went scoreless for nearly seven minutes while UWP went on 13-0 run to push their lead to 11 with under three minutes remaining in the half. The Cardinals closed the half on a 8-0 run by Patrick Whelan, including a three pointer at the buzzer to pull within three at the break 34-31. 
  • Byron Harp's three 46 seconds into the second half tied the game at 34. The Rangers pushed their lead back to six and remained on top for the next six minutes. Eysan Wiley's old fashioned three point play put Jewell back on top 54-53 with 10 minutes to play. UWP scored 10 of the next 13 points to regain the lead and never looked back, hitting 15-of-17 free throws over the final three minutes to steal the win. 

INSIDE THE BOX SCORE
  • The Cardinals shot a season-low 41 percent from the floor while the Rangers connected on 56 percent. 
  • Jewell committed just eight turnovers on the night but were outrebounded 31-22. 

 LEADERS OF THE FLIGHT
  • Whelan led three players in double figures with 20 points, including hitting 5-of-8 from behind the arc. 
  • Easton Koch poured in a career high 17 points, on 6-of-10 from the floor.
  • Keith Hayes chipped in 14 points and two assists. 
  • Wiley led the Cards with six rebounds.  

YOU SHOULD NOTE
  • The Cardinals are the second nationally ranked team Wisconsin-Parkside has defeated in six days, after knocking off No. 1 Bellarmine Saturday. 
  • Head Coach Larry Holley will look to tie Bobby Knight for ninth all-time on the men's basketball coaching wins list on Saturday. 

UP NEXT
Jewell looks to rebound on Saturday as they travel to Lewis University for a 3:00 p.m. match up with the Flyers. The game can be seen live on the GLVC Sports Network.
