Warner, OK- The Connors State Cowboys got a much-needed Oklahoma Collegiate Athletic Conference victory Saturday as they scored 66 second-half points to score a 104-77 win over Seminole State at Melvin Self Fieldhouse.

The win breaks a two-game losing streak for the Cowboys and pulls them into a third-place tie in the OCAC with the Trojans.

Despite having two of their three big men in foul trouble in the first half, the Cowboys took control of the close game with 4:30 to play and carved out a 41-31 halftime lead. The Trojans did make a run early in the second half as they scored 22 points in the first eight minutes to move to within 14 points but that would be as close as they would get as the Cowboys stepped on the gas behind Brayden Hubbard's 16 second half points to blow it open in the final 12 minutes. Hubbard finished with 23 points on the night.

"We played really good defense in the first half but gave up too many points early in the second half and I think sometimes playing just eight guys, we get tired," said Cowboy head coach Bill Muse. "We needed this win badly because we've been struggling."

Connors (18-3, 6-3 OCAC) helped their own cause from the free throw line in the second half as they were 15-of-18 after going just 7-of-13 from the line in the first half.

Bixby sophomore Xavier Glenn took team high scoring honors with 25 points followed by Hubbard then Jhamyl Fricas netting 14 points, and ex-Rougher Xavier Brown and Mason Alexander with 13 points each. Seminole (18-4, 6-3 OCAC) was led by Israel Hart who had a game-high 28 points including 12-of-13 from the free throw line.

The Cowboys will play a non-conference game against Mid-American Christian University Monday night at 6 p.m.
