LEWISTON, Idaho – The No. 23 Lewis-Clark State Men's Basketball team ended its 2019 home season on a high note with a 98-47 win over the visiting Portland Bible College Wildcats. The Warriors made quick work of the Wildcats en route to their sixth win of the season. Trystan Bradley led LC State with 18 points and six rebounds.

"We came out slow, which is never what we want to do, but picked it up throughout the game," Bradley said. "I think we do a really good job sharing the ball. No one is selfish and we play as a team defensively and offensively. We get on each other and motivate each other."

Hodges Bailey hit a 3 to open the contest, and within the first three minutes Damek Mitchell added five to give the Warriors an 8-3 advantage. The junior guard stayed hot from beyond the arc, draining a second 3-pointer at 15:07 to grow the lead to 13-8. Jake Albright put the Warriors up 21-12 at 9:47, and from there LC State went on a 21-6 scoring run that spanned eight minutes. The rally was fueled by buckets from Bradley and Daylon Potts, as well as 3s by Josiah Westbrook and Bailey.

At halftime, LC State led 46-22. Mitchell led the Warriors with 13 points, while Bailey had 12 and Bradley added 10.

The Warriors and Wildcats played an even first five minutes of the second half, each adding 10 points to their totals. Westbrook sparked a 10-point run with a 3-pointer at 12:05. Jaxon Hughes followed with another 3 30 seconds later and by 10:00 LC state led 74-36. The Warriors continued to run the court and ran away in the second half for a 98-47 win.

Bradley led LC with 18 points and six rebounds. Bailey was right behind him with 14 points, Mitchell had 13, Westbrook added 11 and Potts chipped in 10. Potts and Jake Albright each grabbed six rebounds and Mitchell dished out eight assists.

The Warriors were efficient from the field shooting 63 percent (39-62). They hit 10 3-pointers, led by three from Westbrook and two each from Bailey and Mitchell.

"It was a solid team effort," coach Austin Johnson said. "A lot of guys did different things. We are excited to get to work this week for a couple of really, really big road games and see what that challenge is like."

LC State hits the road for the remainder of 2019, starting with the Domino's Classic, hosted by the College of Idaho. They will open with Corban on Nov. 22 and close with the College of Idaho on Nov. 23.
