Game-
Continued from page one
pointer at the buzzer.
New Orleans never missed a
beat coming out of the locker
room and quickly lengthened
their lead to 15 with about 13:00
to go in the game. UNO was led
by four Privateers scoring in
double digits, with Jason Wright
leading the way with 17 points
and Corey Brown finishing with
14 points. Eddie Washington
also contributed by chipping in
10 points and a game high 10
rebounds.
For a while, the Cards could
not seem to figure out the UNO
defense. Nunnery finally did and
caught an alley-oop pass to
ignite the crowd and his team-
mates. The LU defense bore
down and held the Privateers to
just 8-23 from the floor to shoot
35 percent in the second half.
The UNO three-pointer and free
throw threat also died as they
shot a dismal 2-10 and 6-17,
respectively, for the half.
Lamar, meanwhile, never
looked back. The team quickly
erased the 15-point deficit and
created a hole for UNO to try to
climb out of, which they never
did. Nunnery paced the Cards by
going 8 of 12 from the field for a
game high 22 points and eight
rebounds in helping the
Cardinals to 50 percent shooting
for the game. Coleman also
grabbed eight rebounds to go
with his 13 points and Quincy
Alexander chimed in 10 points
of his own in the win.
Lamar improves to 14-8 over-
all and 9-5 in the Sun Belt while
UNO drops to 18-4 and 11-3.
The Cards’ next game is
Thursday, when they travel to
Mobile, Ala., to take on the
South Alabama Jaguars in the
first of two key Sun Belt
Conference road games. The fol-
lowing Saturday, the Cardinals
travel back to New Orleans for a
rematch with the Privateers.
The first half of the double
header pitted the Lamar Lady
Cardinals against the UNO Lady
Privateers. The Lady Cards put
three players in double digits in
scoring but could not overcome
UNO as they went down 71-55.
Denise Scally, Jodie Brand,
and Marie Grigsby each had 13
points in the loss as the Lady
Cards could not overcome 30
percent shooting in the first half
and 25 percent for the game.
New Orleans treated the Lady
Cardinals badly on homecoming
night. Jenny Anderson scored 22
points and snagged nine
rebounds. Kiki Baker chipped in
21 points and eight rebounds of
her own, helping her team to out
rebound the Lady Cards 52-35.
The Lady Cards were on the
road against 19th-ranked
Stephen F. Austin Tuesday.
Results were unavailable at
press time.
