The Oklahoma Wesleyan Eagles & Lady Eagles made a trip up North this Saturday to take on the Kansas Wesleyan Coyotes in Salina. The men were able to pull off a HUGE 75-44 win capped off by a 50-point second half to give the Coyote men their first loss this season. 

Eagle men had an early battle with the Coyotes, but Oklahoma Wesleyan ended the half on an 8-0 run to extend to a 35-25 lead at the half, including this huge slam by Daniel Oliuwasuyi.

Eagle men would outscore the Coyotes 50-29 in the second half, capping off a 31-point win to improve to 10-1, and 6-0 in the KCAC. Jaden Lietzke and Dylan Phillip led the way with 13 a-piece. 

For the women, they played a close game in the first half, but got down big in the 3rd 33-16. After that the OKWU women would go on a 17-2 run to make it a 4-point ball game, but that would be the closest differential in the second half as the women fell 53-64. Both squads back at it next Wednesday when they travel to Avila College.
