DAYTON, Ohio – The Ohio Wesleyan University men's basketball team got the opportunity to play under the bright lights of a Division I arena on Thursday night, heading south to take on Wright State. While it was an official contest for the host Raiders who won 100-47 and move to 3-3, the game served as an exhibition for Battling Bishops who stay 2-3 on the season.

Despite the score, the night provided the Bishops with experience playing against bigger and tougher opponents, something that will come in handy down the stretch in NCAC play. The Red and Black scored 24 in the first half and 23 in the second half to total 47. Wright State scored 52 in the first half and 48 in the second half for an even 100.

THE NUMBERS
Peyton Frey led the OWU offense with nine points on 3-of-5 shooting and 3-of-4 from the free throw line.

Jessee Battle tacked on six points with one rebound and two assists.

Isaac Ward scored five points and made three steals.

Jackson Williams ended with five points and one rebound.

Jake Lowman, James McCarthy, and Jonah Lewis each scored four points. Lowman and Lewis both added two boards, with Lowman notching an assist as well. McCarthy came down with one rebound.

Quinn Hart, Kevin Gallagher, and Kal-el Faison each finished with three points. Hart tallied two steals and one rebound while Gallagher had two rebounds.
