LA GRANDE, Ore. –The Warner Pacific University men’s basketball team has been named the “Team of the Week” for January 28- Feb. 4, the Cascade Collegiate Conference announced.
 
As the regular season winds down, the No. 15 Knights got exactly what was needed in the form of two roads wins, to maintain a tie for second place in the league standings.
 
Against Northwest Christian, WPC withstood a huge late game rally to edge the Beacons 86-81. The Knights were led by De'Jon Bowman who tallied 21 points and a school record 24 rebounds. Collin Malcom scored 16 points and Morris Bethea added 13.
 
On Saturday things were not any easier for the Knights as they entered Corban’s CC Jeffers Sports Center on an emotional senior night for the Warriors. In a tight contest WPC would finally prevail 70-68 behind the 26 points from Xavier Cannefax and the double-double of 22 points and 10 rebounds from Collin Malcolm.
 
WPU (18-7, 12-4 CCC) returns home for important contests against The College of Idaho and Eastern Oregon University on Feb. 9-10.
