There almost wasn't enough time for all the fireworks the Lewis-Clark State men had planned, but they managed every minute remarkably. Why, in a 40-second burst early in the second half, James Idoko hammered home a dunk, Danny Allen passed out free hamburgers and Joey Ray tried, of all things, a 2-pointer.

With hardly a speck of rust on their hull despite a 12-day layoff, the Warriors pounded overmatched Prairie Bible College 116-58 on Friday night.

Faced much of the evening with a zone defense -- something the Warriors haven't seen a lot -- they attacked it expertly. L-C set a school record for 3-pointers with 18, besting the previous mark by two.

Ray, a junior guard from Indiana, was the top gunner, bottoming out all seven of his 3-point heaves. In fact, he didn't even attempt a conventional field goal until slipping in a layup on a steal early in the second half. (That gave him 23 points, and he went to the bench for good with an 8-for-8 shooting performance.)

Ray bunched his bombs. With about six minutes gone by in the first half, he sandwiched triples around a steal by Martin Brothers. He did the same thing five minutes before halftime, giving L-C a 55-19 edge.

The Warriors (15-2) buried 12 3-pointers in the first half, chewing up every zone the Pilots called on.

"We've known zone is coming, so we've been really dialed in to getting ready for zone," L-C coach George Pfeifer said. "And (the Pilots) ran a pile of them -- they had a 3-2, a 2-3, a 1-3-1. And they threw a box-and-1 on Joey. I would have, too."

When Allen canned L-C's 13th trey to start the second half, all the fans at Warrior Gym got coupons for free burgers. Idoko's dunk a few seconds later made it a 50-point margin.

Led by Ray, five Warriors reached double-digit points. Allen, the starting point guard, gathered 12 points and 10 assists while backup post Adam Trombley recorded 15 points and nine rebounds.

PBC (3-15) nailed nine 3-pointers of its own -- and managed just eight buckets inside the arc. The Pilots have now lost 15 straight.

PBC's respectable marksmanship was no match for the Warriors' 18-for-32 clip.

"This is a gym-rat group; these boys are gym-ratters," Pfeifer said of his players. "We get done with a 2-hours-and-15-minute practice, and guys are running over to the ball rack. They want to shoot some more."

These teams will play today at 4. It will be L-C's final non-Frontier Conference game of the regular season.

NOTES -- The Warriors' old 3-point record of 16 came in a 118-93 victory over the University of Puget Sound in 2001. ... Pfeifer said that L-C's two scheduled games with Okanagan last week will count as victories for the Warriors. The Canadian school didn't make the trip to Lewiston because it didn't have enough healthy players.
