KENOSHA NEWS STAFFEyeing its second upset

victory in four days, the Car-thage men’s basketball team was overpowered by No. 22 Illinois Wesleyan, 82-65, in a CCIW game on Saturday night at the Shirk Center in Bloomington, Ill.

With Millikin suffering a

20-point loss to Wheaton on Saturday, Illinois Wesleyan (12-3, 4-0 CCIW) took over sole possession of fi rst place in the conference. Carthage, coming off a victory over top-ranked North Central on Wednesday, fell to 1-3 in league play (6-9 overall).

‘Didn’t play well enough’“Frankly, we just didn’t

play well enough to beat a good team on the road,” Carthage coach Bosko Dju-rickovic said. “They’re an excellent basketball team and their record speaks for that. We have to play better to beat

teams like this on the road.”Tyler Pierce scored a

game-high 22 points — one off his season high — to pace Carthage. Reese Herth made all three of his 3-point attempts and fi nished with 14 points while Donte Logan added nine points and six assists.

Pat Sodemann went 4-of-5 from behind the 3-point arc and scored 20 points (16 in the fi rst half) to lead Wes-leyan. Seven other players scored between eight and 10 points for the Titans.

“Illinois Wesleyan has excellent depth, even though they don’t have any ‘wow’

players,” Djurickovic said. “They play with a very good purpose. Meanwhile, our depth inside is just not there. We’re just outmanned against teams like Illinois Wesleyan with great size depth.”

14 in a row for TitansThe Titans used a 14-0 run

midway through the fi rst half to take a 26-12 lead. After the Red Men cut it to 34-28, Wesleyan closed out the half by scoring nine points in the fi nal 2:28 for a 43-28 halftime lead.

With Herth scoring eight

points, Carthage opened the second half with an 11-2 run to slice the defi cit to 45-39, but the Red Men would get nocloser.

“I thought we had things stabilized at the start of the second half,” Djurickovic said, “but we broke down andrushed a couple of shots.”

Wesleyan had an 18-4 spurtto increase its lead to 63-43 with 11:42 to play. The lead grew to 72-49 with seven min-utes to play.

The Titans shot 90 percent from the free-throw line (27-of-30).
