NORTHEAST HAS FOUR IN DOUBLE FIGURES IN TRIUMPH OVER MOUNT MARTY JV THURSDAY

NORFOLK, Neb. – The Northeast Community College men's basketball team was back home Thursday night to compete in their second game in two nights against Mount Marty University JV at the Cox Activities Center in Norfolk. The Hawks took the matchup by a final score of 113-78 to remain undefeated at home so far this season.

Northeast (2-1) fell Wednesday night to Southeast Community College in Lincoln, Nebraska but quickly put that contest behind them as they jumped all over the visiting Lancers early in the first half. Four starters for the Hawks were in double figures as Johanes Piscikas (Lakeville, Minn.), Scottie Johnson (Denton, Texas), Sunny Singh (Queens, N.Y.) and Marcus Coombs (Blackfoot, Idaho) all scored over 10 points in the showdown. Northeast will now look ahead to a few days off before hosting York University JV next Wednesday at home.

Scottie Johnson (Denton, Texas): 21 PTS, 6 REB, 3 AST

HEAR FROM THE HAWKS COACH:

Head Men's Basketball Coach Josh Clark on his group bouncing back for a big victory tonight:

"After last night's tough game, we talked about wanting to get back to it quickly," Clark said. "We fixed a few things in our walk-through today and that helped us out early. We want to run, and tonight we got a lot of buckets in transition. We needed tonight's game."

Clark on how he will use the next week after a three-game stretch in the last four days:

"Getting guys rest," Clark said. "Getting healthy again. Now we have about a week before our next game, and we are going to take a couple of days off and then we are going to get back to doing the things that make us successful going forward."

UP NEXT:

The Hawks will battle York University JV at 7 p.m. Wednesday at the Cox Activities Center in Norfolk.
