Men's Basketball: Nwoke, Defense Dominate Thunderbirds

Peter Nwoke scored 16 points, hauled in six rebounds and swatted two shots in a dominant win for Lake Superior State. The Lakers crushed the Algoma Thunderbirds 106-50 at the Bud Cooper Gymnasium on Friday afternoon.

Nwoke led LSSU (6-5, 0-2 GLIAC) in scoring, putting up his monster line in just 12 minutes off the bench. It was a statement performance in a massive win. He headlined on a day filled with good performances.

Harrison Sorrelle hit four shots for 10 points, while Tyler Jamison went 4-for-4 from the floor for 12 points. He punctuated his time on the floor with a massive jam in the second half, attacking the rim with dangerous intent. He also snatched seeven rebounds with three assists, two steals and a block in only 13 minutes. 

LSSU held the Thunderbirds (0-11, 0-10 OUA) to just 25.4% from the field. 43 of Algoma's 63 shots came from behind the three-point arc, and the team shot just 23.3% from deep. The Lakers contested everything and controlled the inside, too, hammering the Thunderbirds on the glass 57-27. LSSU gobbled up 17 offensive rebounds, while Algoma only had 18 defensive boards.

Drew Hess scored 12 and Dominic Krzesowiak dropped 11 points in the win.

The Lakers won all three home games this week and now head to their holiday break. They'll play next on January 2nd in a GLIAC doubleheader, with Women's Basketball tipping off at 1:00 PM and the Men's Basketball game tipping off shortly after.
