Cougars
wrap up home season with win over Cloud Highlights The Cougars held that lead until the 13-minute mark of the 2nd half when the T-Birds took a 43-40 lead on a 3-pointer by Reed Hein. It was 1 of 4 teys on the night for guard. Cloud kept that lead over the next 6 minutes, then the two teams traded the lead until 3 straight turnovers by Cloud allowed Barton to go on a 6-0 run and take a 54-48 lead with 4:12 to play. Barton would not trail again. Cloud did have a chance to take the lead in the final seconds but a missed 3-pointer by Keddric Mays kept the T-Birds from taking the lead. Cloud still had a chance to tie the game when Manourou Gakou was fouled with 3 seconds to play. Gakou missed both free throws to seal the win for Barton. Four Cougars scored in double figures led by sophomore Aubrey Bruner. Playing in his last home game of the season, Bruner hit 4-of-8 3-pointers on his way to 18 points. The point guard also had 7 assists and no turnovers. Caleb Tegtmeier added 14 points while sophomores Antanas Kavaliauskas and Diogo Salazar each had 13 points.
