Men’s basketball team prepares for five more season games
STLCC Archer forward, Randy Reed II, goes up for the shot against the Wentworth Military Academy Red Dragons from Lexington, Mo. on Feb. 8 at the STLCC Meramec gymnasium. The Archers defeated the Red Dragons, 72-67, for their 15th win this season. The Archers improved their record to 15-7 with their third straight victory. Reed II is named after his father, Randy Reed, who is the head coach of the Archers. The sophomore forward scored 21 points and went 8-for-13 from the free throw line against the Wentworth Military Academy.
Archers’ sophomore guard Cortez Conners (1) fires an outside shot over freshman Red Dragons’ forward Daniel McElroy (20) from beyond the three-point line. Conners contributed 10 points coming off the bench against Wentworth Military Academy and was one of four Archer players to hit double-digits. The matchup marked the last regular season game that the Archers played at Meramec for the 2013-14 year. The Archers have five more regular season games before the Region XVI Tournament kicks off the postseason, with two home games at STLCC-Florissant Valley on Feb. 12 and Feb. 22. The Archers went 2-1 in their three games at Meramec.
