Blue Raiders force the Bears to commit 21 turnovers in the victory By Charles Balcom News from Lindsey Wilson College PORTSMOUTH, Ohio - The Lindsey Wilson men’s basketball team used a strong defensive effort to defeat Shawnee State (Ohio) 69-52 on Thursday night at the Frank and Janis Waller Gymnasium. The Blue Raiders (4-3, 1-1 MSC) forced 21 turnovers by the Bears while giving up 52 points, the second-lowest allowance of the season. Shawnee State falls to 1-5 overall with a 0-3 mark in conference play. The Blue Raiders opened the game on a 7-2 run before the Bears brought it back level at 11-11. Another 6-0 Lindsey Wilson run capped off by a pair of Bryan Wallace free throws put the Blue Raiders up 17-11 at the 11:38 mark. Lindsey Wilson then struggled to find any offense as the Blue Raiders went all the way to the 6:47 mark before their next score, a three-point play by Tony Menton. The Blue Raiders pushed the lead to eight points at 27-19, but the Bears scored eight straight to tie the game at 27-27 with 1:44 to play in the half. Lindsey Wilson scored the final points of the half with back-to-back three pointers by Charles Sutton and D’on Hall to take a 33-27 lead into halftime.
