Warriors head to Messiah for final road contest

WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. - Heading into its final road contest of the season before ending the year with a two-game homestand, the Lycoming College men's basketball team will head to Messiah College on Wednesday, Feb. 4, at 8 p.m., at Hitchcock Arena. 

The Warriors (9-13 overall, 3-10 MAC Commonwealth) fell to Stevenson, 81-57, on Saturday. Junior Nasir Akram had career-highs in points (10) and rebounds (9) and sophomore D'Yante Doughty finished with a team-high 18 points, also pulling in five rebounds. 

Messiah (8-14 overall, 4-9 MAC Commonwealth) dropped an 80-71 contest to Arcadia.  Freshman Matt Glogowski led the Falcons with 23 points and 10 rebounds. Freshman EJ Porter added 18 points and sophomore Kyle Krout had 14 off the bench. 

Warrior Notes 

• Lycoming needs one more win to reach 10 wins for the 25th straight season.

• The Warriors pulled in a season-high 16 offensive rebounds against Stevenson, marking their fourth straight game in double digits.

• With five points against Stevenson, senior Calvin Chandler reached 500 points in his career.
