The Dallas Baptist Men's Basketball Team moved to 15-9 on the season and 8-5 in Heartland Conference play after they cruised to a 93-64 win over Lincoln University, Thursday night at the Burg Center. The 29 point win marks the largest margin of victory for the Patriots this season.

Five players scored in double figures for the Patriots. Heath Weichman (18 points), Braxton Adamson (17 points), Eddie Gloviak (16 points), Jordan McGowen (12 points), and B.J. Dale (11 points and 10 rebounds) led a balanced attack, in which the Patriots connected on 48.6 percent from the field.

The score remained close throughout the first half, with neither team able to build a substantial lead. However, Jordan McGowen's jumper with 5:37 left sparked a 14-1 DBU run, and gave the Patriots a 40-28 lead at halftime.

Dallas Baptist continued their attack in the second half, opening with another 10-2 run. Gloviak's layup, off of a spectacular half court assist from Armie Lewis, gave the Patriots a 52-32 lead at the 15:52 mark. DBU continued their aggressive play and tough defense for the remainder of the half, and held as much as a 32 point lead late in the game. Overall, the Patriots outscored the Blue Tigers by 17 in the second half alone, on their way to the 93-64 win.

Lewis ended a phenomenal night with a career-best, 11 assists, in only 24 minutes of action.
