Blue Raiders win big after a fast start against Cumberland By Christopher Coombs The Lindsey Wilson men's basketball team defeated Cumberland (Tenn.) 95-71 on Thursday night in Mid-South Conference action at Biggers Sports Center. Matthew Eldridge recorded his third double-double of the season after producing a team-high 20 points and 10 rebounds. Four other Blue Raiders (14-13, 5-7 MSC) finished the game in double figures as JR Adams had 19 points, Shakaris Laney recorded 16 and Kel Stotts and Jason Carter added 10 and 11 points, respectively. Lindsey Wilson shot an impressive 54.4 percent from the field as they knocked down 14 three-point attempts. The Phoenix (9-13, 2-9 MSC) shot 44.3 percent from the field but only managed to shoot 18.8 percent from beyond the arc after missing all five of their attempts in the second half. The Blue Raiders got off to a quick in the contest, opening the game on a 21-4 run that lasted just over the first six minutes of action. LWC's defensive effort limited the Phoenix to making just 2-of-8 field goal attempts to open the game while forcing three turnovers. Lindsey Wilson would manage to maintain at least a 15 point lead over the remainder of the half, taking their largest lead of the half at 23 points with 1:54 on the clock. LWC would lead 51-29 at the break. JR Adams paced the Blue Raiders offensive efforts in the half with 16 points on 6-of-8 shooting from the field while connecting on 4-of-6 attempts from beyond the arc. Matthew Eldridge grabbed seven boards as LWC dominated the glass, outrebounding the Phoenix 23-14. Lindsey Wilson would extend their lead to as many as 25 in the early goings of the second half before Cumberland managed to trim the LWC advantage to 20 points at 65-45 with just over 12 minutes to play. It was as close as the Phoenix would get as the Blue Raiders and Cumberland then traded baskets to a 23 point Lindsey Wilson advantage with just over eight minutes to play. LWC would outscore the Phoenix 16-15 over the remainder of the game to win by a final score of 95-71. Cumberland had three players score double-digit points as Andrew Rogan scored a game-high 24 points and added three steals. Lindsey Wilson is back in action on Monday when they play host to Fisk (Tenn.) at Biggers Sports Center starting at 4 p.m. CT. This story was posted on 2019-02-15 05:28:13
