SPC Men Dominate NMMI

The Texans jumped out on NMMI and never looked back.  Led by Bo Ingram's six points, SPC began the game on a 10-2 run in the first three minutes of the game.  NMMI could never decrease that deficit to any less than six points as the Texans cruised out to a 19 point lead at halftime.  Hugh Mingo scored 15 of his 17 points in the first half.

Jumping out to as many as 25 points in the second half, the Texans allowed NMMI to make it somewhat intersting as the Broncos went on a 22-10 run to narrow the deficit to 13 points with just over six minutes to go.  Led by David Tairu, who scored 14 of his team high 21 points in the second half, the Texans picked up their game and went on to close out the game with a 22 point victory.

The Texans return to the Texan Dome on Monday, February 16 when they face conference foe Midland College.  This contest will have major conference and national implications as the teams are tied atop the WJCAC standings and ranked in the top ten in the NJCAA with SPC ranked fifth, and Midland sitting seventh.
