Durrett comes through for L-C

Guard
scores eight points in OT as Warrior men
outlast Corban 87-82
SALEM, Ore. --
One night after misfiring in the clutch,
Eric Durrett and the Lewis-Clark State
men hit the right notes down the stretch
Saturday evening.
Durrett, who
pumped in 36 points, made a 10-foot
jumper with six seconds left in
regulation to tie the game. The Warriors
then took command in overtime, and
charged to an 87-82 victory over the
host club in the Corban College Classic.
In the extra
session, L-C (10-2) got eight points
from Durrett and six from Jamal Harris.
The Warriors took the lead for good with
3:20 left on two Spencer Bishop free
throws.
On Friday night,
LCSC lost to Western Oregon by five.
That game had been tied with 90 second
left, but the Warriors went cold from
there. L-C was also outrebounded 46-15
in that game.
So on Saturday,
the answer was to be more aggressive.
"We just talked
about attacking the basket more,"
Warriors coach Tim Walker said. "All of
our guards and our bigs were more
aggressive in this game. That was
probably the biggest difference."
Durrett parlayed
his nervy play into 13 free throws (he
made 10). He also connected on 12 of 24
floor shots.
And L-C won the
rebounding battle 54-50.
After Durrett's
tying basket, Corban got a chance to win
it. But Ben Sisler missed a 3-pointer,
and Ryan Heil's tip attempt skidded off.
Harris came up
with 17 points and 12 rebounds while
Jared Tikker collected 13 points and
five boards.
After spending
the last four games on the road -- and
going 2-2 -- the Warriors will return to
the Activity Center for a doubleheader
with Johnson & Wales next weekend.
