Game Notes

The Larks had a sluggish start in the first half as it seemed none of their shots would drop as they shot just 12.5% from three point range, which is normal a strong suit in the Larks game plan.  They trailed 43-34 going into the second half as they tried to find a spark to help them keep their winning streak alive.  Hesston was unable to knock down shots tonight as they shot 11-31 in the second half, as the Blue Devils took advantage of their missed shots and out scored them 45-35 in the second half.  Jacob Baker (So. Wichita, Kan.) led the Larks in scoring as he recorded 19 points as he went 6-7 from the free throw line.  Langston Flowers (Fr. Dallas, Texas) added 16 points and had 7 rebounds on the game, Reese Nebel (So. Hesston, Kan.) also added 15 points.
