LWC Men's Basketballs drops 2nd straight overtime game

By Chris Wells

Columbia, MO - The Lindsey Wilson men's basketball team lost in overtime for a second straight day, falling 76-71 to Missouri Baptist on Saturday at the 2018 Hampton Inn Thanksgiving Classic hosted by Columbia (MO) at the Southwell Complex.

Lindsey Wilson returns to action at 7pmCT on Friday, Nov. 30, as the Blue Raiders host Central Penn at Biggers Sports Center, 360 Spickard Drive, Columbia, KY.


The No. 25 Blue Raiders (3-4) led by double-digits in the second half and by six points (66-60) with just over two minutes left in regulation, but could not close out the Spartans -- who are receiving voting points in the national poll. Missouri Baptist (7-0) outscored the Blue Raiders 10-5 in the overtime to remain unbeaten on the season.

Trailing 74-71 with 14 seconds left in overtime, Lindsey Wilson missed two potential game-tying 3-pointers and a third -- that went in -- was waived off when the officials called a traveling violation prior to the shot.

The Spartans sealed the comeback win with a pair of free throws.

Three Blue Raiders scored in double figures, led by Kel Stotts' 27 points -- which ties a career high. JR Adams scored 15 points while Payton Cundiff posted his first career double-double with 12 points and 10 rebounds.

Stotts and Adams combined for 11 of the Blue Raiders' 14 3-pointers in the game. Lindsey Wilson shot 36.9 percent (24-of-65), but just 9-for-35 (25.7 percent) in the second half and overtime. Missouri Baptist shot 50 percent (27-of-54) from the field, including nearly 57 percent (13-of-23) after the halftime break.
