Lewis Men's Basketball Throttles Salem International, 111-61

Six different Lewis players score in double-figures; Flyers score most points in game since 2001.

Romeoville, Ill. - Six different players scored in double-figures as the Lewis University men's basketball team won its fifth-straight game with the 111-61 victory over Salem International in the final day of QU Subway Holiday Classic - hosted by Quincy - at the Pepsi Arena on Sunday (Dec. 18).

The 111 points is the most by a Flyer squad in a single game since 2001 and the most in a regulation contest since 1997. Lewis' 62 points in the second half and its bench performance of 63 points was enough to beat Salem International alone.

With the win, Lewis improves to 7-4 while Salem International falls to 1-11 on the campaign.

Lewis sophomore swingman Delaney Blaylock (Wyoming, Mich./Godwin Heights) scored a game-high 18 points, while sophomore center Frank Vukaj (Davison, Mich./Davison) and freshman guard Adam Pischke (Cary, Ill./Marian Central Catholic) each contributed 14 points apiece. Pischke knocked down four three-pointers.

Redshirt freshman guard Jake Reinhart (Bloomington, Ill./Central Catholic) connected on three trifectas to finish with a career-high 13 points, while senior guard Capel Henshaw (Harrisburg, Ill./Harrisburg) had 11 points, including two three-pointers. As a team, six different Lewis players hit at least one three-pointer and the Flyers finished with 14 three-pointers on the afternoon.

Junior guard Eddie Miles (Chicago, Ill./Hales Franciscan) had 10 points and five assists, while freshmen Donovan Oliver (Kewanee, Ill./Kewanee) and Anthony D'Avanzo (Harwood Heights, Ill./Notre Dame) each contributed nine points for the Flyers.

As a team, Lewis shot 54.8% (40-for-73) from the field and 42.4% (14-for-33) from three-point range, while the Tigers converted 37.5% (21-for-56) of their field goal attempts and 31.0% (9-for-29) of their three-point shots.

Lewis returns to action on December 30th, as the Flyers welcome Northwood to Neil Carey Arena for a 7 PM tip-off.
