From Paragould, Arkansas, the Victory University Men's Basketball team closed out the regular season by defeating the Pioneers of Crowley's Ridge College 68-51.

Victory was led by Tyrell Hursey with 19 points while Jordan Miles chipped in 17.  Kristaps Bernans had a team high 7 rebounds.  Chris Downey and Jordan Miles each had 2 assists.

“Tonight was a big road win for us. We set the tone defensively early in the game and we did a good job throughout making them play uncomfortable," said Head Coach Scott Robinson.  "I'm really proud of our guys as they continue to be trailblazers for our university.  This win brings us to 20 on the season, the first in program history!”

The win brings Victory’s record to 20-7 on the season. 

The Eagles move forward to the USCAA Nationals in Uniontown, Pennsylvania.  The Eagles will face Ave Maria University (Ave Maria, Florida) at 7 p.m. on February 27th.
