CPA outlasted the nationally ranked Orange Lutheran Lancers by a score of 70-64. CPA jumped out to an early nine point lead, 12-3 in the first quarter, but the Lancers answered with a run of their own to end the quarter leading 20-16. The teams were evenly matched until Orange Lutheran saw their biggest deficit as the Lions pulled ahead 54-44. The Lancers again closed the gap and with 47 seconds left in the game, Orange Lutheran's Gabe York (Arizona signee)was fouled on a made three-pointer and had an opportunity to tie the game with a made free throw. York failed to complete the four point play and the Lancers didn't see the lead again. Jalen Lindsey led CPA with 32 points and 9 rebounds. Gabe York led Orange Lutheran with 28 points and 4 steals.

Are you in Louisville? I think the game today is 9:00pm eastern against Ballard (#2 ranked team in KY).

Good Luck to CPA! I hope that you keep representing the state of Tennessee in such a strong fashion up in the Blue Grass state. If Rick Pitino was there last night then I'm sure he was impressed with Jalen Lindsey.

 

As a Louisville Cardinals fan I'd love to see him dominating in the KFC YUM Center! in a few years

How did you get this info so fast? I have been trying to get news tonight, but it was nowhere online that I could find.

If they win tomorrow, they should be nationally ranked for the first time in school history.
