DANVILLE, Ky. - Seven different Warriors recorded at least four points but it was not enough as Centre (12-2, 3-0 SAA) outscored Hendrix (5-9, 1-2 SAA) 46-30 in the second half en route to a 72-56 win over the Warriors. Freshman forward Seth Stanley logged a team-high 13 points on 4-of-8 shooting from the floor and sophomore guard Kam Brasfield added 10 points and six rebounds against the Colonels. This game serves as the third game in the last five days for Hendrix to open up Southern Athletic Association play.
