Jack Second Half Shooting Struggles Continue

The Lumberjack Men's Basketball saw their second half struggles against Williston State appear again in the second half of their game Sunday against Lake Region State College. The Royals outscored the Jacks by 10 in the second half to win 75-66.

A highly contested first half saw numerous ties and lead changes. DCB took a narrow 33-32 lead into the halftime break. Just like Wednesday the Jacks would struggle to find a rhythm shooting just 29% from the field. LRSC would go on a 17-2 run to take control of the game. The Jacks would respond late with a 12-3 run to cut the deficit to single digits but couldn't complete the comeback eventually falling by a score of 75-66.

Phil Gibaut led three Jacks in double figures with 14 points. Jaden Arzola joined him with 13 and Shaun Armstrong with 12. Ginuwine Tropnas led the Royals and all scorers with 19 points.

DCB now sits at 13-5 overall and 0-2 inside the Mon-Dak. The Jacks are back on the road tonight to take on NDSCS. Tip-off is set for 7:30p.m.
