OHIO CHRISTIAN 86, FLAMES 59

Knoxville, TN

February 26, 2010. Ohio Christian University showed why they are deserving of a #3 national ranking by The National Christian College Athletic Association as they handily defeated Free Will Baptist Bible College 86-59 in their Mid-East Regional matchup Saturday.

 

The Flames were only able to hang with the Trailblazers for a few minutes before a 27-11 run put OCU in front for good.  The Trailblazers continued to put the pressure on and extended their lead to 23 as both teams went to the locker room.  In the second half, the Flames could get no closer than 17.

 

Once again FWBBC was led in scoring by Brandon Wade with 27 points.  The only other Flame in double figures was Chris Davenport with 11.  Kevin Murray, David Landers, and Adam Gardner each pulled down seven boards to lead the Flames.

 

With an overall record of 11-20, the Flames travel to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, to play in the Association of Christian College Athletics' national tournament.  Action begins Thursday and continues through Saturday.
