CHICAGO, Ill. – The North Park men's basketball team fell by a score of 89-64 Wednesday night, as they couldn't find the right touch against the No. 7 ranked Wheaton Thunder.

The Boyd brothers led the way offensively for NPU as Jordan had 18 points to go along with 14 from Jalen. Gabe Johnson, Michael Osborne, and Jonathan Johansson all chipped in eight points as well. Wheaton was fueled by the guard duo of Nyameye Adom and Tyson Cruickshank, who dropped 27 and 25, respectively.
