DURANT, Okla. – Nick Shoemaker knocked down the 183rd three-pointer of his career with 11:27 to play in the first half of Saturday's contest at Southeastern Oklahoma State, becoming SWOSU's all-time leader in three-pointers made.
Unfortunately for the Bulldogs, that was one of the few highlights in the game, which Southeastern won by a score of 86-73. Shoemaker ended the day with nine points on 3-of-7 shooting from downtown as he surpassed Clarke Hale's previous record of 182 made three's, which he set during his time at SWOSU from 2006-09.
Southeastern hit eight three-pointers in the first half and built a commanding lead of 56-29 at the break. Their advantage would climb to 29 at 61-32 early in the second half before SWOSU used a 10-0 run to make it 61-42 with 15:09 to play. To their credit, the Bulldogs continued to battle for the entire 40 minutes, eventually cutting their deficit to single digits twice in the closing minutes before Southeastern put the game away at the free throw line.
Kamden Gipson led the Bulldogs in scoring for the second straight game, posting 18 points on 5-of-12 shooting from the field to go along with seven assists and three rebounds.
Tre Evans totaled 15 points, six rebounds and two assists before fouling out and
