3rd Win in a Row for Men's Basketball

DANVILLE, IL - Jaguar men's basketball is on a roll recently as they picked up their third victory in a row on Saturday against the Eagles of Illinois Valley Community College. 
 
Danville (6-6) was a force to be reckoned with Saturday afternoon as they fought with the Eagles (6-10) and came out victorious. The defensive pressure the Jaguars put on Illinois Valley throughout the first half is what helped them stretch out their halftime lead. Danville held the Eagles to 25% in field-goals, 7.7% in 3-pointers, and 55.6% in free-throws. In comparison, the Jaguars were at 47.8%  in field-goals, 30% in 3-pointers, and 87.5% in free-throws, earning them the 32-24 lead at halftime. While the Eagles improved more in the second half, Danville was still able to hold them off defensively, while also knocking down shots offensively. They had 46 points in the paint, and grabbed 17 points off of Eagle turnovers. The Jaguars grew their lead to close out the game, getting the win 79-55.

Sophomore Lorenzo McMillion led the Jaguars with a double-double, scoring 19 points and grabbing 10 rebounds. Dredon Nunn added 14 points, while Blake Reed added 9. 

Danville will continue to work in practice over Winter break, and will be back in action on January 4th when they travel to Quincy, Illinois to face the Blazers of John Wood Community College at 3 pm.
