SKC Men surge to 3-0 at AIHEC, Lady Bison barely beaten by Turtle Mountain

SKC Men continue to roll in AIHEC pool play
PABLO - The Bison continue to blowout teams so far this week at the AIHEC Tournament after handling Turtle Mountain earlier this afternoon, 69-39. The game was stopped with 2:27 to go because of the tournament mercy rule as Marvin Hudson hit a three-pointer for SKC.

It was SKC's third straight blowout victory as they will have a top spot when bracket play starts tomorrow.

Turtle Mountain scored first on two free throws to begin the game, but the Bison went on a 19-0 run to really put the game on ice before it began. SKC led 34-15 at halftime.

In the second half with 18:27 to go in the game and the score 41-19, the Bison went on another big run, a 16-2 advantage and cruised to a 69-39 victory.

Three Bison players scored in double digits. Emory LaMere led the way with 14 points while Marvin Hudson had 13 and Jason Enright added 12.

The Bison will begin bracket play tomorrow, most likely as a top seed.

SKC Women fall to Turtle Mountain
PABLO - The Lady Bison came back from a 27-19 halftime deficit but couldn't finish the comeback against Turtle Mountain on Friday falling 52-50. SKC tied the game 49-49 with 40.6 seconds to go, thanks to two clutch free throws from Loni Belcourt. Then things got interesting.

Alison Grey Bull hit a free throw to put the Lady Bison up 50-49. With 17.5 seconds left, SKC was called for a foul and Turtle Mountain hit both their free throws to take a 51-50 lead. The Lady Bison couldn't convert on the other end, and was forced to foul. Turtle Mountain hit one free throw to make it 52-50 with 1.2 seconds left and the Lady Bison couldn't come up with the miracle shot.

Grey Bull led the team with 13 points and Charlo Brown added 10.

SKC will open bracket play tomorrow.
