Bobcats Routed By Hot Glenville State

GLENVILLE, W.Va. – West Virginia Wesleyan's Men's Basketball team lost to Glenville State on Saturday evening 100-53. The Pioneers finished with 25 assists and outrebounded the Bobcats 47-27 in the route.

Glenville State brought their hot shooting from the 1st Half into the 2nd Half, extending their lead to 30 at the first media timeout of the half. The Pioneers got everyone in on shooting run, digging deep into their bench to produce more scoring.

WVWC's cold shooting continued throughout the remainder of the game, allowing Glenville to get out and run to find wide-open looks. Wesleyan finished the game shooting 35% from the field. GSU shot an impressive 56% from the field and 47% from behind the arc.
