HENDERSON, Tenn. - There's hot shooting, and then there's what the Freed-Hardeman Lions did on Tuesday night.
The No. 18 Lions shot a blistering 63.3 percent from the field - including 66.7 percent in the first half - on their way to a 111-60 blowout over visiting Brescia (Ky.) University.FHU (3-0) opened the game with a Zack Frey turnaround in the paint on its first possession, and held the lead for the entirety of the game. The Lions used an early 17-3 run to build a 28-11 lead with 10:58 to play in the first half, after which Brescia would get no closer than 14 points.
Neither Frey nor Jesse Moulton missed a shot in the first half. Frey was 5-of-5 from the field while Moulton was 6-of-6, including 5-of-5 from 3-point range.
The Lions only slightly cooled off in the second half, shooting 60.0 percent in the final 20 minutes. The Bearcats cut FHU's lead to 20 points on the heels of an 11-3 run, but Frey and Logan Greer triggered a 17-2 burst that extended the Freed-Hardeman advantage to 37 points with 9:46 to play.
Frey led all scorers with 22 points and recorded his first double-double of the year with 10 rebounds. Moulton had 20, 17 in the first half. Once again, FHU's reserves produced a lot of offense with James Haddix (17), Kyle Teichmann (12) and Vincent Barnes (10) accounting for 39 of the bench's 59 points. Teichmann also posted a double-double with 10 rebounds.
The Lions are back in action on Saturday at 3:00 PM as they host No. 21 Tougaloo (Miss.) College, who defeated NCAA Division I Alcorn State (Miss.) University, 109-86, earlier this season.
