OKWU Basketball Sweeps Conference Doubleheader
The Oklahoma Wesleyan Eagles got a win against a quality Kamsas Collegiate Athletic Conference opponent on Saturday as they topped York, 85-77.

Sloppy play late allowed the Panthers to make it look closer than it really was. OKWU has now won eight of its first nine gamse to open the year and begins conference play 2-0.
The Lady Eagles got a convincing victory over York as well, 77-62. It was a phenomenal day for senior Guard Tiffany Rieger who dropped a career high 24 points in the win.
The victory puts the Lady Eagles at 1-1 in conference and 5-1 overall.
