E&H's Reasbeck Leads Way in Conference Senior Challenge
SALEM, Va. --- Emory & Henry's Lance
Reasbeck hit seven three pointers to account for all 21 of his
points to lead the ODAC men to victory over their counterparts from
the USA South, 108-99, in the second annual ODAC/USA South Senior
Men's Basketball Challenge. The ODAC adds this victory at
Roanoke College to its triumph at Averett last season.
Reasbeck hit 5-of-6 shots from the field, all from beyond the arc,
to lead the ODAC to a 13-point advantage through the first two
12:00 quarters. He finished 7-of-12 overall from deep
accounting for all of his field goal attempts. Washington
& Lee University's Alex White added 11 points, seven rebounds
and four assists while Guilford College's Thomas Burge hit 3-of-5
from three point territory on the way to 11 markers.
Christopher Newport University's Donta Selden led all scorers with
23 points to go with eight assists and six rebounds.
Shenandoah University's Mouktar Fawehinmi chipped in 12 points and
eight boards, and CNU's Korey Lewis added 11 points and another
eight rebounds. Greensboro College's James Newman registered
10 points.
Following a pair of solid quarters in the first half, the pace
slowed in the third frame. The USA South made a strong run at
the outset of the period, pulling to within three at 63-60, but the
ODAC regained its composure near the midway point. The USA
South managed to pull two points closer after 36 minutes of play,
but still trailed 76-65 going into the fourth quarter.
The two squads combined for 66 points in the final 12 minutes of
play as the USA South tried to work its way back into the
contest. Selden led a strong USA South push, but the ODAC
continued to shoot well from the outside, hitting 6-of-12 shots in
the quarter to keep the USA South at bay.
