Blue Jays Beat Acorn on Saturday 65-60
Nashville- The Blue Jays (14-4, 3-0) finished off a busy week with a game against Acorn in the Nashville Classic, as they were searching for consecutive wins after beating Nashville on Wednesday night. In the first quarter, Brogan Rhodes had the hot hand, as he knocked down two 3-pointers and scored 8 points, as Nevada scored 21 points in the opening quarter to grab an early lead. 

This game was a close one pretty much the entire way, as Acorn did a nice job of making some tough shots. In the second half though, Kavion Coleman would erupt for 20 2nd half points, including hitting five 3-pointers in the second half. Nevada would make some key stops when they had to and secured the 65-60 win over the Tigers. 

Kav Coleman led all scorers with 27 points, as well as adding 6 rebounds. Keyonte Wingfield and Kobe Hughey would both score 9 points, as Wingfield dished out a team-high 8 assists and had 3 steals. Hughey would add 3 boards and 3 assists. Brogan Rhodes had 8 points and 5 rebounds. Justin Myrick had 6 points and Monti Mixon added 5 points. Caleb Moss had 4 points and grabbed 6 rebounds, as he continues to be all over the floor for the Blue Jays. 

Nevada is back in action on Tuesday as they head to Kirby for a big conference game, as both teams are undefeated in conference play.
