EDWARDSVILLE, Ill.-  Southern Illinois Edwardsville held the Greyhound men's basketball team to just 28.6 percent shooting in taking a 64-50 win at the Vadalabene Center Thursday night.   The Greyhounds were able to muster just 2-for-19 (10.5 percent) from three-point range in the loss.

Just one field goal in an almost eight-minute stretch helped SIUE erase a six-point deficit and turn it into a three-point lead.  12 of the Cougars' final 14 points of the opening half came from beyond the arc, staking SIUE to a 33-27 advantage at the break.

After the teams traded buckets to open the second stanza, the Cougars ran off 11 straight points, holding UIndy (10-5, 4-3 GLVC) off the scoreboard for four-and-a half minutes in stretching their lead to 17.

That advantage would grow to as many as 19 and the Greyhounds had their work cut out for themselves.  Leading scorer DeAndre Brock fouled out with 5:50 left in the game, making the task all the more daunting, but the Hounds still managed to whittle the deficit to 11.

UIndy, however, could not overcome its shooting woes and SIUE was too much on this night, holding the Hounds to a season-low 50 points.

Junior Tristan Rogers was UIndy's leading scorer, totalling 11 points.  Braxton Mills had 12 rebounds and nine points for Indianapolis.

The Greyhounds remain on the road and head to Quincy University Saturday.  Tipoff is set for 4:15 p.m. Eastern time.

Notes:  Brock was 5-for-5 from the free throw line to extend his consecutive streak of makes to 17, a stretch that spans five games ... The Hounds collected just five field goals in the second half, shooting a season-low 19.2 percent from the floor after halftime.
