Warriors look to rebound when they head to Stevenson

WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. - After Lebanon Valley snapped the Lycoming College men's basketball team's nine-game winning streak, Lycoming is set for a chance to get back in the win column when it travels to Stevenson University for a 2 p.m. contest on Saturday, Jan. 7, at Owings Mills Gymnasium.

The Warriors (12-2 overall, 4-1 MAC Commonwealth) fell to a hot-shooting Lebanon Valley, 80-72, in its last outing, despite holding a +10 rebounding advantage and scoring eight more points off turnover. Both senior David Johnson and junior Chris Wallace led the team offensively with 13 points.

The Mustangs (1-12 overall, 0-5 MAC Commonwealth) start the tallest lineup in the conference, with three players sitting at 6-6 or taller. 

Warrior Notes
• With a win, the Warriors can clinch their eighth straight winning season under head coach Guy Rancourt and the team's 21st in 22 years.
