Even Dozen Get In The Scorebook For JCU As Streaks Top Spalding And Century Mark

Corey Shontz turned in one of his best all-around efforts to help JCU earn a split at the "Mose" Hole Classic
If the Blue Streak men's basketball team had set any goals on Wednesday evening in Wooster, Ohio -- besides the obvious one of winning the game -- those goals would have centered on how the win would be achieved.

In shooting a high percentage from the floor, getting a dozen players in the scoring column, and avoiding any serious injury, the Blue Streaks were able to produce a very satisfying 100-75 triumph over Spalding University on the second and final day of the "Mose" Hole Classic.
