The Mineral Area College Cardinal men are now 15-0 after a 90-67 win over Lewis & Clark Sunday night at the St. Louis Shootout.

MAC took a commanding 55-32 lead over Lewis & Clark at the half and led by as much as 29 thanks to a swarming defense that forced turnovers and breakaways.

The ring leader was our Applebee’s Player of the Game.

Terrion Murdix poured in a season-high 33 points in the win.

With leading scorer Angelo Stuart among those ailing with illness for the Cardinals, Murdix says head coach Luke Strege asked him to make some big plays.

The eighth-ranked Cardinals are off the rest of the week until the St. Francois County Rotary Shootout, when they will face Missouri Baptist JV Saturday at the Bob Sechrest Fieldhouse.
