Box Score
PINEVILLE – The Wildcats couldn't quite find their offense here Thursday night, shooting just 34 percent from the field in a 61-51 American Southwest Conference loss to Sul Ross.

The Wildcats, who trailed 25-21 at half, shot just 29 percent from the field in the first period and 38 percent in the second.

Worse, LC shot just 10 percent from beyond the three-point arc in the first half and 18 percent overall, enough to spell defeat and a drop to 4-4 overall and 3-2 in ASC play.

Not all was bleak for the Wildcats, however, as Chukwuma Ekeh had one of his best outings of the year, producing a 16-point, 11-rebound double-double.

Sophomore guard Jarrod Jackson was good for 12 points and four assists on the night for the Wildcats with Phillip George adding seven points and JeLani Mitchell six.

Sul Ross was led by Andy Hulsey, who, ironically, matched Ekeh stat-for-stat with his own 16-point, 11-rebound double-double.

Steven Johunkin added 11 points for the Lobos, who improved to 2-7 overall and 2-4 in ASC play.

LC's men will next be in action Saturday at 3 p.m. at home against Howard Payne.
