Vikings Stifled by Elmhurst

14 from Johnson not enough

ELMHURST, Ill. – The North Park men's basketball team came up short in a battle with Elmhurst University Saturday evening, losing 89-59.

Both teams shot the ball fairly well, but the three-point shooting seemed to write the difference in the ballgame. The Bluejays shots 42% from behind-the-arc making six more threes than the visiting Vikings. Elmhurst also was able to take control of glass, outrebounding North Park by 20.

Quick Hits:

  • Gabe Johnson, Izaiah Sanders, and Jalen Boyd all reached double figures, scoring 14, 12, and 10, respectively.
  • Sanders also brought his defensive acumen to the contest, grabbing four steals.

What's Next?
