Lancers tame Cougars in front of packed house

Lancers tame Cougars in front of packed house

Though the game was originally scheduled for November, Monday night's win against Western Nebraska was actually seven years in the making.

For the first time since the 2012-13 season, the Eastern Wyoming College men's basketball team beat Western Nebraska. The Lancers won 85-74 to split the season series with the Cougars.

The Lancers controlled the game from tip-off to final buzzer and ended the Cougars' five-game win streak in front of a fully packed Verl Petsch, Jr. Activities Center.

Monday's non-conference tilt was a make-up for the November 26 game that was canceled due to weather.

Stats will be made available as soon as possible.
