Junior transfers
Khalilah Quigley and
Lakeria Crowder became eligible for UPIKE after Christmas and have bolstered the team's offense immediately. In a high-scoring 100-97 win against Rio Grande (Ohio) on Thursday, Quigley tallied a game-high 22 points and Crowder led the Bears with three assists.
The Pikeville men were pitted against Rio Grande with sole possession of first place in the MSC standings on the line and UPIKE left little doubt after the outcome. Leading by nearly 30 points in the second half before sending the starters to the bench, the Bears were in control the entire half after going on a 14-5 run just before halftime.
