Milligan men lose to Covenant at home MILLIGAN COLLEGE, TN (January 14, 2006)---The Milligan College men’s basketball team was defeated by a score of 82-60 on Saturday night by conference opponent Covenant College at the Steve Lacy Fieldhouse in a game in which the Buffs never held the lead. In the first half, Milligan could not find an answer for Covenant’s Jonathan McClellan, who went 5-for-5 from the field, including 3-of-3 from beyond the three point arc, for a total of 13 points. McClellan was not the only hot shooter of the opening period for the Scots, as they shot an impressive 60 percent from the floor in the half, to put them ahead by a score of 40-28 at halftime. The second half held more of the same, as Covenant continued to build upon the lead that was established from the opening tip off. Covenant’s Ben Britt led all scorers in the game with 23 points. Leading the way for Milligan was junior Zach Dezarn (Franklin, Ohio), who scored 19 points, including a 5-of-7 night from three point range. The loss drops Milligan to an even 9-9 overall, and 4-7 in the Appalachian Athletic Conference. Covenant improves to 6-12 overall and 5-5 in the AAC. Milligan will look to bounce back on Thursday, Jan. 19, at home against Tennessee Wesleyan College. That game will begin at 7:30 p.m.
