Hot Shooting Raiders Slip Past WP

PORTLAND, Ore. – Riding a 61 percent shooting effort, Southern Oregon upset #15 Warner Pacific on the road for a key Cascade Conference win.
 
The visiting Raiders hit 35 of 57 shots from the field for the game, including 10 of 16 from the three point line to earn the victory and move to 15-7 overall and 10-3 in CCC play.
 
While the host Knights scored at a reasonable 45 percent clip (30 of 66), it was not enough as the Raiders responded to every attempt at a rally. The loss dropped the Knights to 16-7 and 10-4.
 
SOU methodically set the pace in the second half, leading by as much as 12 points (84-72) with 3:20 to play. WPU scored seven straight at that point to close within five points, but the Raiders made five of six free throws in the final minute to claim the upset.
 
Kenny Meyer led Southern Oregon with 23 points, while Jordan Hunt added 19 points and six assists.
 
WP was paced by a game high 27 points from Xavier Cannefax, and 22 points and 17 rebounds from De'Jon Bowman.
