Edison State Defeats Wright State Lake

The Edison State Men's basketball team defeated Wright State University–Lake Campus Friday night 101-70.

The Chargers wasted no time tonight taking the floor and setting the tone early. The Lakers came out in zone-defense and the Chargers were red hot from the perimeter. An early 24-6 lead forced two Laker timeouts. Edison State extended the lead to 55-31 at the half.

The Lakers got hot in the second half with several deep 3s of their own pulling the Charger lead to under 20 on two occasions. But in the end, it was the more disciplined play of the Edison State team down the stretch that pushed the lead out of reach.

The entire Charger roster got in the scoring column tonight. Christopher Landrum, II (Troy Christian HS) provided the Chargers with his first triple-double with 17 points, 12 assists, and 10 rebounds. Hadith Tiggs (Wayne HS) had 15 points and 5 rebounds. Dae'Shawn Jackson (Springfield HS) scored 14 points and 4 rebounds. Dusty Poteet (Troy Christian HS) added 12 points and 6 rebounds and Nick Thompson (Tipp City) had 10 points and 7 boards for the chargers tonight.

The Chargers will travel to Columbus State Community College Saturday, January 21st to take on the Cougars at 3:00 p.m.
