No. 19 Panthers Seek Road Split Of GLVC Games When They Visit Saint Joseph's Sunday

RENSSELAER, Ind. - The No. 19 Drury Panthers will seek to bounce back from a tough loss on Friday when they visit Saint Joseph's for a 3:15 p.m. Great Lakes Valley Conference tipoff here on Sunday afternoon.

Coach Steve Hesser's Panthers fell to 7-3 overall and 1-1 in the GLVC with Friday's 74-57 loss at nationally seventh-ranked and unbeaten Indianapolis, in which Drury was tied with the Greyhounds 32-all at the half. Kameron Bundy had 18 points and Mike Nwelue added 10 points and six rebounds to pace the Panthers, who finished the game with senior standout Cameron Adams sidelined with an ankle injury and two regulars in the rotation - guard Lucciano Gamiz (foot) and forward Deon Pettigrew (illness) - in street clothes.

The Panthers will take on a Saint Joseph's team that fell to 3-9 overall and 1-2 in the GLVC with a 111-99 loss at home to Missouri Science and Technology on Friday. 

The Pumas are in their second season under head coach Tom Church. Cameron Vines, a 6-4 senior, averages 22.3 points and 5.8 rebounds to lead the Pumas, while 6-6 junior Nathan Tidwell and 6-0 junior Dawson Gore contribute 10.5 points per game each. SJC is averaging 80.4 points per game while allowing 85.7.

Bundy averages 18.4 points to lead the Panthers, while Adams adds 16.3 points and Nwelue 11.6 points and a team-high 5.4 rebounds per contest. 

Drury leads the all-time series with SJC by a 9-3 count, including an 80-66 victory at the O'Reilly Family Event Center last season.
