Ripon Continues To Click On All Cylinders In Blowout Win At Lawrence

APPLETON, Wis. - Ripon shot 57 percent (39-69) from the field, including 69 percent (22-32) in the first half on Saturday, en route to a 95-53 win at Lawrence University. The Red Hawks also shot 52 percent (13-25) from 3-point range, which is tied for the fifth-most single game 3-pointers in program history. The win marks Ripon's fifth consecutive victory, winning each game by an average of 26.8 points during that streak.

Ripon (14-7, 10-4 MWC) led from start to finish, getting out to an early 12-2 lead just four minutes into the contest. Leading by eight with just under 13 minutes left in the first half, Ripon went on a 30-7 run to take a 31-point lead two minutes before halftime.

Leading 53-24 at the half, Ripon kept their foot on the gas in the second half, going on a 20-9 run to start the period to take a 40-point lead on a Trent Jones layup. The Red Hawks would lead by as many as 43 in the game, as Head Coach Ryan Kane remains undefeated in his career against Lawrence (16-0).

Nine Ripon players scored at least five points in the game, led by Trent Jones' 17 points on 8-of-13 shooting, to go along with three steals. That gives Jones 102 steals in his career, which moves him into 10th place in school history. Seth Kostroski added 14 points on 5-of-9 shooting, including 4-of-7 from 3-point range, while also tying a career-high with six assists. Owen Theune and Drew Jorgensen also chipped in with 11 points apiece. Ripon turned the ball over just six times, and out-rebounded the Vikings 46-26.

Lawrence (9-12, 5-9 MWC) was led by Mason Materna and Bryce Denham, who each scored 15 points. Brad Sendell added nine points, while Quinn Fisher recorded five assists.

Ripon will try to keep things rolling Wednesday when they'll return home to host Cornell College at 5:30 p.m. That game can also be seen live at https://portal.stretchinternet.com/ripon/.
