Eagles clip OCC men Southwestern Christian holds off Ozark; Wilson's 34 points key OCC's women “I had no idea I had scored that many points,” Wilson, who prepped at Springfield Central, said. “I have awesome teammates and I just came out and played hard.”
Megan Gariss, who scored all of her points in the second half, and Chrissy Lahm tallied 17 and 15 points, respectively, for the Ambassadors. Kala Brust scored 11 points and Gariss also grabbed 12 rebounds and Lahm 11. “It was a team performance,” OCC coach Darrell Doss said. “The girls stayed together. They did a pretty good job of taking care of the ball.” Proficient shooting was a factor, too, Doss said, pointing to 51.6 percent overall from the field and 20-of-29 from the line. The team sank 6-of-7 from long range in the second half. Devona Hutson, a 5-8 senior from Claremore, powered Southwestern Christian (0-4) with 35 points. Her 12-of-24 accuracy included 5-of-9 from 3. “OCC outhustled us,” Eagle coach Becky Mitchell said. “We also didn’t shoot as well as we usually do from the field.” Southwestern Christian shot 32.5 percent overall from the floor and 27.3 from 3 (9-of-33).
