South Dakota State 75, Buena Vista 65

BROOKINGS, S.D. — Joe Green scored a career high 24 points as South Dakota State, a provisional NCAA I member, handed fifth-ranked Buena Vista its first loss of the season, 75-65 at Frost Arena Saturday night.

SDSU led 31-26 at halftime but Buena Vista hung tough in the second half, thanks in part to the three-point shooting of guard Eric Wiebers, who hit seven treys and led the Beavers with 30 points. BVU came back from a 41-31 deficit to lead 44-43 on a layup by Randy Bissen with 11:56 to play. Bissen was the second leading scorer with ten points.

Two free throws by Green put the Jacks back on top, and they built a 58-46 advantage with Green scoring nine points and adding an assist to a basket by Luke Geiver.

Green had a double-double with 10 rebounds as SDSU had a 48-37 advantage on the boards. The Jacks had three players in double figures with Ben Beran adding 19 points and 9 rebounds while Michael Loney added 13 points.

Neither team shot well, SDSU at 39 percent and BVU at 38, but the Jacks overcame a 26-24 field goal deficit by hitting 24-of-30 free throws including 18-of-21 in the second half.

SDSU, now 3-11 for the season, will host North Dakota State next Saturday, Jan. 15, while BV fell to 9-1 and will play at Wartburg Tuesday.
