Foresters Brave Snow­storm to Bat­tle Pi­lots

MISHAWAKA, Ind. – This past Sat­ur­day, Jan. 19, our Bethel Bas­ket­ball teams took on Hunt­ing­ton Uni­ver­sity. Ac­cord­ing to the Bethel Pi­lots Ath­let­ics web­page: not only were the game times im­pacted by the in­clement weather, but the Alumni event ‘Hoops and Hot dogs’ was also forced to change. Hoops and Hot­dogs was an event put on by the alumni of­fice. It pro­vided free food be­fore the game for any Alumni who wanted to at­tend the game.  De­spite the Men’s team need­ing to play early due to weather, they were able to net them­selves an 11-point vic­tory. Trey’von Cov­ing­ton was left two points away from his ca­reer-high score but fin­ished with a game-high score at 23 points. Cov­ing­ton was­n’t the only one heav­ily con­tribut­ing to the vic­tory. Ryan Lutz has man­aged an er­ror-free free throw streak this sea­son, com­plet­ing 26 con­sec­u­tive points from free throw shots alone. This streak puts him 8^th in the lineup for con­sec­u­tive free throw shots made in the pro­gram’s his­tory. Our Pi­lots are now cur­rently ranked #16, hope­fully they can keep this po­si­tion as they travel to Goshen, In­di­ana on Wednes­day at 8PM to take on the Goshen Col­lege Maple Leafs.
