COLUMBIA, KY - Lindsey Wilson men's basketball beat Northwestern Ohio 71-64 on Friday in the first game of the Cincinnati Christian Holiday Tournament.



After building as much as a 19-point lead in the second half, Lindsey Wilson had to hold off the hard-charging Racers (6-7) en route to its seventh straight win. The Blue Raiders, who had not played in 13 days, shot 51 percent (26-of-51) from the field while boasting four players in double figures.

Lindsey Wilson led at halftime 32-28 following a back-and-forth half that featured four ties and nine lead changes.

In the second frame, Lindsey Wilson used a 13-2 run over a four-minute span to turn a five-point lead into a 58-42 bulge midway through the half. The Blue Raiders extended that lead to 19 (65-46) with a little more than six minutes remaining.

Over the next four minutes, Northwestern Ohio - with the help of the Blue Raiders -- trimmed the deficit to 67-61. During the Racer run, UNOH did not miss a shot while Lindsey Wilson made just one of its four shots, missed all three of its free throws and committed four turnovers.

Bryan Wallace ended the UNOH run with a basket with 1:28 left to push the lead back to eight. Wallace led Lindsey Wilson with 21 points. He added seven rebounds and five assists in the win.

Northwestern Ohio cut the deficit to six points one more time, but would get no closer in the setback.

Charles Sutton joined Wallace in double figures with 18 points while grabbing eight rebounds. Dmitry Utolin and Hannes Erhardt contributed 12 and 10 points respectively.

Ray Beatty led the Racers with 12 points. - Chris Wells, the writer is Lindsey Wilson Sports Information Director
