The Warriors earned their first ever GSAC road victory beating San Diego Christian College 68-58. William Jessup was led by junior guard Chris Murry who set a new school record for most three point shots made in a game connecting on nine out of his 12 attempts and surpassing Anthony Anderson who had made eight against Bethany University in 2011.
The Warriors looked sluggish as the game opened, appearing to be the better team but failing to get the basketball to fall through the hoop and soon found themselves in a six point deficit. Slowly but steadily they spent the rest of the half digging themselves out in order to travel to the locker room with a 10 point lead.
The second half was the polar opposite for the Warriors as they came out of the gate guns blazing andjumping to a 20 point lead which would be the largest they would earn that night. What the Warriors failed to do; though, was deal the San Diego Christian Hawks a crushing blow. Over the course of the last ten minutes of the game battled back to within single digits with two minutes remaining in the game. Nine points would be the smallest William Jessup would allow the gap to reach before they flexed their defense and closed out the contest with a ten point victory.
With no surprises, Chris Murry received the game ball for the evening's match as he led the Warriors with a career high 30 points..."
