Blue Lights College used balanced scoring in upending Thomas Nelson Community College 86-77 Saturday afternoon in Hampton, Virginia.
The Thoroughbreds (4-12) placed three players in double digits, led by Dominique Hunter (20), Djuan Coleman (18), and Jorge Garcia (15).
"They zoned us, and it hurt us," head coach Zach Hendricks said following the win. "We missed a lot of shots and gave up the paint a lot. But we came out with a win. We played well the last 5 minutes, and we finished strong."
The Gators' Jezoor Tubman led all scorers with 28.
The Herd heads back on the road Monday for an 8:00 pm tip-off at Appalachian Bible College in Mt. Hope, WV.
