LSUS Pilots mistreat Millsaps, 75-63
12/01/03

The LSUS Pilots traveled to Jackson, Miss., to take on the Millsaps College Majors. LSUS entered the contest with a 3-4 record, with six of those contests being on the road. The Pilots improved their record to 4-4 with a 75-63 victory over the Majors.

In the first half, Millsaps had the upper hand, going 8 for 12 from beyond the three-point line. Brad Greenhaw led the way for the Majors with 9 points in the opening frame. The Pilots kept pace, however, and Millsaps led by only one at the half, 34-33.

A balanced LSUS scoring attack proved to be too much for the Majors in the second half. Travis Cash and teammate Derrick Sowell both collected double-doubles in the game. Sowell contributed with 18 points and 13 rebounds while Cash finished with 12 points and 10 boards. Derrick Rogers rounded off the Pilots' offense with a 17-point performance to go along with 8 rebounds.

Both LSUS basketball teams look to improve their records Thursday night when they will play on the road at Texas College in Tyler. The Lady Pilots tip off at 5:30 p.m., followed by the men at 7:30 p.m.
