DUBUQUE, Iowa - The University of Dubuque men's basketball team picked up their seventh straight win with a 95-71 victory over the Simpson College Storm on Saturday at the Stoltz Sports Center as four Spartans scored in double figures.

The Spartans started quick, opening up on a 12-2 run to lead by double digits not even four minutes into the game. The Spartans would continue to increase their lead throughout the first half leading by as many as 21 points on three different occasions. With a 50-30 halftime lead by the Spartans, the Storm would only get as close as 16 points before the Spartans grabbed their biggest lead of the night at 91-60 with 3:27 left in the game. 

Jacob Williams (20), Jaylin McCants (17), Sunday John (15), and Keegan Zimmerman (13) all scored in double figures against the Storm. The Spartans hit 14 three-pointers tonight as Zimmerman and Williams both hit three apiece.

After a 100 point performance on Wednesday at Loras, the Spartans offense continues to roll as they nearly put up triple digits yet again tonight. With their sixth conference win in a row, the Spartans keep sole possession of first place in the A-R-C standings. 

Hear from Robbie Sieverding
"It was great to see four guys in double figures tonight. Sunday and Keegan gave us a good lift off the bench and our press turned into some easy baskets in the first half. I thought Jacob had a great game and had been really playing well of late. Big game on Wednesday with a very good Nebraska Wesleyan team coming to town."

The Spartans move to 14-4 overall and 8-1 in conference play.

Up Next
The Spartans next game will be on Wednesday, January 29 at 7:30 p.m. when they host the Nebraska Wesleyan University Prairie Wolves. A massive game yet again as the Prairie Wolves are the lone conference team to defeat the Spartans this season. The Spartans will need a win on Wednesday to remain in first place in the conference.
