EL RENO, Oklahoma -- The 7th ranked Northern Oklahoma College Mavericks blasted Redlands 113-62 Monday night in El Reno while the Lady Mavs lost to the Lady Cougars 80-51.
The NOC men improved to 17-1 on the season and 3-1 in conference play while the Lady Mavs (3-13) fell to 0-4 in league play.
Mavs 113, Redlands 62
Tyrel Morgan led seven Mavs in double figures in the 51 point win over the Cougars. JD Ray added 12 points while Barron Tanner and Mark Berry had 11 each. Demaree King, Syrus Grisby, and Justin Wilson each added 10.
The Mavs shot 63 percent from the floor and 50 percent from 3-point range.
“Any conference road win is a good win,” said coach Donnie Jackson. “We got off to a slow start, but some guys came in and gave us great energy to get us going. Justin (Wilson) and Syrus (Grisby) both played well. JD (Ray) kept our pace and Barron (Tanner) hit some timely shots when they had us down early.”
“We have a big game at Murray Thursday,” Jackson added. “They are 4-0 in conference, they are battle tested and are very deep. We will have to bring our absolute best to the table if we want to be in the game.”
Redlands 80, Lady Mavs 51
The Lady Mavs got down early to #20 Redlands (16-1) and never recovered.
NOC trailed 44-24 at half.
Point guard Celeste Moore led the Lady Mavs with 14 points, Carlee Murray had 10 rebounds.
“We got off to a slow start with poor shooting percentages,” said coach Greg Jackson. “Against a good team like Red-lands, that makes it very difficult to climb out of the hole. Good news is Celeste Moore is healthy after her injury last game. She played well and is ready to go.”
