Lions Quiet Wolves with 83-57 Win

Box Score ARECIBO, P.R. – The Saint Leo University Men's basketball team found its rhythm again Thursday evening, defeating the University of Puerto Rico-Arecibo 83-57 at UPRA Cancha.
 
Fifth-year forward Marty Jackson recorded 18 points on the night, as Redshirt Fifth Year guard Francis Sio reached double figures for the second time this season (11 points).
 
The Lions (7-4, 2-2 SSC) roared out to 48 points while limiting the Wolves to 17 in the first half.
 
"Great defensive effort and some very unselfish play" said Head Coach Lance Randall after the game.  "With three games in three days, we went very deep into our bench in the first half and early in the second and I thought they responded exceptionally well; we got some great contribution from a number of guys."
 
The Green & Gold continue its Puerto Rico tour, heading east of the country to take on the UPR-Carolina Jaguares Friday with tipoff time set for 6 p.m.
