NIACC men fall to Augustana College JV, 92-87
By The Globe Gazette staff
ROCK ISLAND, Ill. - The NIACC men's basketball team shot just under 50 percent from the 3-point line and buried 14 shots from deep.
It still wasn't enough to take down the Augustana junior varsity on Saturday in a 92-87 loss.
The Trojans were 14 of 29 from the 3-point line, and freshman Nick Wurm hit five 3s and scored a team-high 22 points. Tim Trousell added 10 and Matt Baker chipped in 10.
"We shot it well and they shot it well. They were 15 of 23 from 3, and anytime a team shoots it that well you are probably going to be in trouble, and we were (Saturday)," NIACC coach Mark Mohl said. "They're a JV team like teams in our league."
Augustana led 38-37 at the half before both teams hit the accelerator on the offensive end over the final 20 minutes. NIACC is now 7-5.
NIACC – Matt Baker 10, Ben Moss 7, Nick Wurm 22, Tim Trousell 18, Darnell Taylor-Breck 8, DeAndre Burnside 2, Brad Rathjen 8, James Lloyd 6, Josh White 4, Jason Gumm 2.
3-point goals (14-29) – Baker 2, Moss 2, Wurm 5, Taylor-Breck 2, Rahtjen 1, Lloyd 2.
