by GLENDALE, Ariz. — Senior guard Titus Yearout scored 15 points and grabbed 7 rebounds Saturday as Lewis-Clark State fell 80-79 to No. 3 Arizona Christian in the finale of its Arizona trip.
The Warriors went toe-to-toe with one of the NAIA’s top teams and came up a single point short, a day after opening the season with a 72-54 win over Park-Gilbert.
Yearout led the way for LC State in the near-upset, posting a team-high scoring night against the Firestorm.
The loss evens the Warriors’ record at 1-1 heading back to Lewiston.
Up next: LC State travels to Gonzaga for an exhibition on Wednesday, Oct. 28.
