Fort Worth, Texas - Southwestern Christian University took a trip to the Lone Star State today, where conference opponent Texas Wesleyan University awaited them for their match tonight. SCU was cold out of the gate, and Texas Wesleyan would use this to their advantage, defeating the Eagles 81-55.

Southwestern Christian was only able to manage 18 points in the first half against a tough Texas Wesleyan defense, and although they performed much better in the second, their fate was sealed by the 26 point deficit at the half. Deondre Dunn led the Eagles in points with 14 on 3-4 shooting from three, while picking up 2 rebounds and a steal. Michal Wooldridge was close behind with 13 points, his coming from the field on 6-11 field goal shooting. The big also had 6 rebounds. Taylor Turner came off the bench for the Eagles today, and #10 immediately put up 10 points, going 4-5 from the field (2-3 from beyond the arch). Noels Slivackis, also off the bench, gave the Eagles 7 points, with a rebound and a steal. George McCurdy was a great facilitator for the Eagles, as he had 3 assists (which led the team), 2 rebounds, and 1 steal.
