It was a high-scoring night of GLVC men's basketball with seven total teams scoring more than 80 points on Saturday. All-American Adam Eberhard poured in a career-high 33 points to help top-ranked Bellarmine improve to 16-0 with a tough 82-71 road win at Rockhurst. Casey Teson posted a career-high 38 points and Chaz Glotta sank a crucial 3-pointer in the final minute as Maryville scored the final seven points to defeat Truman State 85-78. Teson's total is tied for the most in the Division II era and tied for the fifth highest in program history. Delaney Blaylock poured in a career-high 33 points and Kendale McCullum finished one rebound shy of a triple-double (21 points, 11 assists, 9 rebounds) in Lewis' 99-70 win at Indianapolis. The victory for the Flyers was their first over the Greyhounds at Nicoson Hall since a 69-67 win on Feb. 26, 2011. Southern Indiana had to withstand a second half run by William Jewell to post a 98-79 victory. Kobe Caldwell added 11 points in the second half and finished with a season-high 29 points. A three-pointer by Bahari Amaya with 10.4 seconds remaining capped a big comeback for Illinois Springfield in an 88-87 home win over Drury. Amaya finished with a career-high 24 points, with 18 of those coming in the second half and eight coming in the final four minutes. McKendree's Nolan Gerling led all scorers with 25 points and Logan Kohrmann added 20, but Missouri S&T was able to snap an 11-game skid with a 72-69 win in Lebanon. Johnathan Matthews posted 22 points to help UMSL past Quincy, 83-74.
