Rangers 2 crushed the Our Lady
of the Lake University Lakers 59-35
Sunday night at Our Lady of the
Lake.
The Rangers are 2-1 and in third
place two games behind first.
The Rangers began with a 3-1-1
full-court press and fell back to a 3-
2 zone defense to force the Lakers
to charge in desperation, knocking
down philosophy freshman Josh
Martin four times.
Martin was not injured despite
the rough play.
The Lakers tried playing man-
to-man coverage to no avail as the
Rangers built a 32-8 lead at the
half.
The play of the game came in
the second half when engineering
sophomore Aaron Alonzo made an
ally oop pass to business freshman
Michael Hill for a slam dunk that
shook the backboard and lit up the
crowd.
Liberal Arts freshman Arturo
Gonzalez crashed the boards,
caught his own rebounds and
scored over the hands of opponents
in a strong offensive play.
The Rangers shot well from
downtown as Martin nailed two •
3-point shots, one in each half,
and psychology sophomore Trey
Nickerson and Alonzo each drained
a 3-pointer in the first half.
The Rangers scored 11 points at
the charity line, missing only two
free throws.
Psychology freshman Andre
Worthan, liberal arts freshman
Arturo Gonzalez, liberal arts fresh-
man Donte Allen and Nickerson all
scored eight points.
Coach Robert Evans s
team needs to work on defense.
"There were missed free throws
and missed layups we need to drill
on," Evans said. "I think they have
a good chance of taking first place.
They are stronger with guard play."
The players need to control their
emotions, Evans said.
"When you get emotional with
the refs it takes away from concen-
trating on what you need to do on
the court," he said.
"They need to learn not to talk
back to the referee. Your biggest
emotion comes with the referee,"
Evans said. "One referee came
over and told me it was only his
second game and to cut him some
slack."
