The Kuyper College Men's Basketball team defeated Moody Bible Institute on Thursday evening by a score of 84-65. The win propelled the Cougars to the Midwest Regional Semifinals on Friday evening, where they will be taking on Grace Christian University at 5:00pm.Â
The Cougars got out to an early lead over Moody Bible and led wire-to-wire. Kuyper had a balanced effort, where all 12 Cougars scored in the game. Kuyper shot 48.5% from the field as a team, while holding Moody Bible to just 35.3% from the field.Â
Kuyper was led by
Damion Cochran, who finished the night with 18 points.
Richard Major added 15 points to go along with his team-high 7 assists.
Latrell Jennings also reached double figures, scoring 13 points.
Herman Brown grabbed a team-high 9 rebounds.
Kuyper finishes the year with a 3-0 record over the Archers, and will now advance to take on Grace Christian University. The Cougars lost both regular season match ups to the Tigers, so the Cougars will need a different outcome to advance to the Regional Championship on Saturday afternoon.Â
