ROMEOVILLE, Ill. – The No. 10 UIndy men's basketball team (18-2, 10-2 GLVC) ran its win streak to 12 on Saturday, defeating Lewis (7-12, 3-9 GLVC) by a score of 81-70. In addition, the Greyhounds secured their seventh consecutive road victory.
 
Josiah Tynes led the Hounds with a career-high 19 points, while Bruno Williams finished with 10 points and five rebounds in his first game back at Lewis since transferring to UIndy.

With the win, UIndy matches its best 20-game stretch to begin the season since 2014-15. 
 
HOW IT HAPPENED
The Greyhounds were in control for most of the afternoon, leading for more than 39 minutes of action. Aaron Etherington's first of three 3-pointers gave UIndy an early 12-4 advantage, fueling the fire that was successful shooting from both teams.
 
Leading by 13 at halftime, the Hounds led by double digits the final 20 minutes. A dunk from Julian Steinfeld at 9:33 put the visitors up 20, their highest lead of the day. Jesse Bingham chipped in half of his 18 points in the second half, his final jumper with 75 seconds left to put the Hounds up 15.
 
UIndy forced just eight turnovers, however, the defense was a force to be reckoned with in the paint. Steinfeld recorded a game-best three blocks, while pulling down seven boards. In addition to leafing all scorers, Tynes also committed a pair of thefts in 25+ minutes.
