This will be the third ever meeting between Colonels and Jags

THIBODAUX, La. – Winners of three of their last four, and four of their last seven, the Nicholls men's basketball team steps away from Southland play for a week, taking part in the Sears Bracketbuster event hosting the IUPUI Jaguars Saturday afternoon in Thibodaux. The Colonels defeated the Lamar Cardinals at home last Saturday, getting the week off preparing for this week's game.

Last time out

Powered by 21 points from Dantrell Thomas, the Nicholls men's basketball team held the high scoring Lamar Cardinals to just 25 first half points, en route to a 72-63 win Saturday afternoon in Stopher Gym. The Colonels (8-16, 4-8 SLC) have won their last three games at home and are winners of four of their last seven. Thomas led all scorers with 21 points on 6-of-12 shooting in the game, and made all seven of his attempts at the free throw line. Trevon Lewis chipped in 17 as a reserve with three blocks, as the Colonel bench outscored Lamar's 26-4. If there was any doubt about the Colonels ability to shut down the Lamar (16-9, 7-4) offense, those fears were put to rest in the first 12 minutes of the game as Nicholls held the Cards to just one made shot from the field to go on a blistering 24-6 run to take a commanding lead early. Although the Colonels led from the 16 minute mark and on, the Cards woke up in the second half and with 8:58 remaining in the game were within three points of Nicholls heading toward the most crucial stretch of the game for both teams. Desperate, the Cards began floating up 3-pointers and pressing the Colonels on inbound plays, but the Colonels scored eight points on fast break opportunities as the Cards would only come as close as seven points for the rest of the game.
