The Lake Forest College men's basketball team won 78-66 at
Carroll University Friday night (February 5). The Foresters have
won eight of their last nine games and are now 10-9 overall this
season and 8-4 in league play. The Pioneers fell to 11-8 overall
and 6-6 in the league.
Four Lake Forest players reached double figures in scoring, led by
senior forward Patrick Hanley (Plainfield, Ill./Plainfield) and
sophomore post player Travis Clark (Evanston, Ill./Evanston) with
14 apiece. Clark also pulled down 10 rebounds for his league-high
11th double-double of the season. Hanley dished out four assists,
leaving him just one shy of the single-season school record of 114
assists set by Danny Nikitas in 1978-79.
Sophomore forward Nate Bateman (Lake Forest, Ill./Lake Forest
Academy) and freshman guard Jeff Beck (Algonquin,
Ill./Dundee-Crown) were next on the team with 11 points apiece and
sophomore guard Chris Roets (Hartland, Wis./Arrowhead) added nine.
Senior guard Victor Campbell (Milwaukee, Wis./Wisconsin Lutheran)
led the squad with five assists.
The Foresters shot 52.7 percent from the field and connected on 11
of 23 (47.8%) three-pointers. Carroll shot 46.3 percent from the
floor and 6-for-13 from beyond the arc. Lake Forest committed 13
turnovers while forcing just five but out-rebounded the home team
40-21.
Carroll led by as many as 11 points in the opening half. The
Foresters, however, knocked down seven three-pointers and
out-scored the Pioneers 29-12 over the last 10 minutes of the
period and led 38-32 at halftime.
Lake Forest opened the second half on a 17-6 run and kept a
double-digit lead for the rest of the game. The margin reached a
game-high 18 points (67-49) after a Clark layup with 7:09 to play
in the contest.
The Foresters will pursue their ninth victory in the last 10 games
at St. Norbert College, the nation's ninth-ranked team, at 4:00
tomorrow afternoon. A live video webcasts of the game will be
available at pennatlantic.com and live
stats will be available on the St.
Norbert web site.
