February 26, 2019 / No. 2 Trailblazers earn road win
ULLIN, Ill. - The Vincennes University men’s basketball team
made it an even bakers dozen Tuesday night.
The No. 2 Trailblazers earned a 76-56 road win over Shawnee for their
13th straight win improving to 28-1 on the season.
Lony Francis, Jr. tallied a team best 22 points to pace four
Trailblazers in double figures.
Just three nights after pouring in a career-high 30 points, Keith
Clemons added 15 points to the ledger Tuesday night, while Colton
Sandage (11) and George Dixon (10) combined for 21 points.
VU led 45-30 at the break and were never threatened in the second half.
The Trailblazers, who will be the No. 1 in next week’s District 16
postseason tournament at Rend Lake, wrap up the regular season Friday
at Wabash.
The Warriors cracked the Top 25 for the first time this season in the
latest NJCAA Division I polls which were released Tuesday afternoon.
Wabash Valley is ranked No. 25.
