Men's Basketball Shut Down by Shippensburg, 73-31

SHIPPENSBURG, Pa. – Held in check by a stingy defense, the Lock Haven University men’s basketball team (3-21, 1-9 PSAC West) shot a season-low 26 percent (12-of-48) from the field en route to a 73-31 loss at Shippensburg University (15-9, 5-4 PSAC West) tonight.

Senior forward Joe Walker (Lock Haven, Pa./Central Mountain) led the way for the Bald Eagles with 10 points and five rebounds.

LHU was out-rebounded 51-28, including a 17-6 deficit on the offensive boards. The Red Raiders also had a 22-12 advantage in takeaways, with a 21-0 points-off-turnovers margin.

The last time an LHU squad was held below 40 points was a 59-34 loss at Shippensburg, Jan. 20, 1999.

Walker and the rest of the Bald Eagles are back in action Saturday, Feb. 19 at 3 p.m. as they host No. 21 Edinboro University.
