On the road in their conference finale and playing on back-to-back nights, the Macks (14-9, 6-6 Western Cloverbelt Conference) gave up an early lead and found themselves down two possessions to the Cardinals (2-20, 0-12 WCC), who got hot from distance early in the game.
Right before halftime, however, McDonell responded, retaking the lead and stretching it to a 13-point advantage at the break. After the half, the Macks never looked back, scoring the first 11 points of the second half and cruising to a dominant conference victory.
WOGO "RadioActive" Award Watch:
Sophomore forward Nathan Hazel, now a regular starter for Coach Adam Schilling, raised his career-high for the second time in three games, tallying 20 points. Junior guard Eli Stepp also was placed in the starting lineup and made the most of it, finishing with 14 points as 13 different McDonell players scored.
