Seawolves dominate Red Lions, 116-67

ANCHORAGE - Taylor Rohde paced six Alaska Anchorage players in double figures with 25 points to lead the Seawolves to a 116-67 win over Lincoln Christian at the Wells Fargo Sports Complex on Friday night. The victory, UAA's sixth straight, pushed the Seawolves' season mark to 6-2, while the Red Lions of LCU slipped to 2-9.

Thanks to the inside play of Rohde and the early lights-out three-point shooting of Travis Thompson (4-of-8 3FGs) and Kyle Fossman (3-of-4), the Seawolves ran out to a 28-4 lead by the 11:28 mark of the first half.

The 6-foot-9 Rohde also added a game-high 12 rebounds to post his second double-double on the season and lead UAA to a dominating 55-19 rebound advantage over the Red Lions, whose tallest player is 6-4. UAA's Phillip Hearn added a career-high nine boards. The rebound margin was the Seawolves' fourth-largest in program history.

Thompson finished with 19 points for the Seawolves. Other double-figure scorers for UAA included Marcus Jackson with 15, Liam Gibcus 14, Fossman 13 and Chris Weitzel 12. Jackson, Gibcus and Weitzel's totals were all career-highs.

Lincoln Christian was led Chris Lawson and Mark Hamm, who tallied 17 and 16 points respectively.

UAA shot a blistering 59 percent from the field and dished out 32 assists, led by Jackson's six. All 10 UAA players that dressed saw double figure minutes and all 10 got into the scoring column.

The two teams will meet again Saturday night at the WFSC at 7 p.m. Fans are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items that will be donated to the Food Bank of Alaska. Those that bring items for the food drive will be admitted free.
