Yesterday the Jacks dropped a tough game to Eastern Wyoming College 94-80. EWC is also a NJCAA Division I team. Considering the Jacks spotted EWC a 16 point lead the game was quite close. "Hard to dig yourself out of a 16 point hole," stated Head Coach Brock Lemon. Other then the start Lemon was pleased with his team's play. "The Guys fought hard, I was pleased with their effort".
Sophomore Tyree Johnson lead the Jacks with 28 points while freshman Tyriek Johnson added 24. Freshman Dante Brinnelli had a solid game adding 11 points and 5 rebounds.
The Tournament will continue Saturday as the Jacks will play their third game in as many days as the take on Colorado Northwestern Community College, another Div. I opponent.
