Throughout the first half, the game was a close, single-digit contest with KCU looking to steal a\u00a0much needed AAC road win, but it was not to be as TWU defended their home court with a 69-78 win.<\/p>\n<p>For the second consecutive day, Taeron Hogg (SO\/Owensboro, KY) came off the bench to collect his first double-double of the season. He had 18 points on 7-13 shooting with a made three-pointer and a perfect 3-3 from the free-throw line to go with 10 rebounds.<\/p>\n<p>KCU placed three other players in double-figures as Connor Maddox (SR\/Augusta, KY) and Khyle Washington (SO\/Atlanta, GA) both netted 13 points, with Kurt Hall (SR\/Chicago, IL) added 10.<\/p>\n<p>Washington continued his outstanding rebounding efforts from the point guard position by grabbing nine and just missing his own double-double.<\/p>\n<p>Noah Back (SO\/Vicco, KY) and Maddox combined for five made three-pointers.<\/p>\n<p>KCU snagged 37 rebounds during the game, which was a plus-3 over their opponent.<\/p>\n<p>The Knights could not overcome the 14 additional free throw attempts the Bulldog offense produced.<\/p>\n<p>The Knights round out first\u00a0semester play by traveling to play the Point University Skyhawks for the second time in less than four days. Monday&#8217;s game is the second half of an AAC men&#8217;s\/women&#8217;s basketball doubleheader. The game times are 2 and 4 p.m.<\/p>\n<!--CusAds0-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KCU Athletics Bruce Dixon, Associate Athletic Director ATHENS, Tenn. \u2013 The KCU Knights traveled to the campus of Tennessee Wesleyan University on Saturday to take on<span class=\"excerpt-hellip\"> [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1141,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[314,318,6,23],"tags":[88,351,319,350,349,325],"class_list":["post-1157","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-appalachian-athletic","category-kentucky-christian","category-mens-basketball","category-top-news","tag-basketball","tag-connor-maddox","tag-kentucky-christian","tag-khyle-washington","tag-taeron-hogg","tag-tennessee-wesleyan"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1157","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1157"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1157\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1160,"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1157\/revisions\/1160"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1141"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1157"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1157"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1157"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
