More news about: Centenary (La.)

Shreveport- Freshman G/F Kane Broussard (Iowa, La.) made a Centenary men's basketball program record ten 3-point baskets as he helped lead the Gents to a 94-64 blowout victory over the Howard Payne University Yellow Jackets on Tuesday night in a non-conference contest inside the Gold Dome.

The Gents (4-11) led 56-17 at halftime over the Yellow Jackets (11-8) as they notched their first home win of the season and evened the season series after losing 103-82 in Brownwood, Texas on Dec. 12. Centenary's win on Tuesday was its largest of the season and largest since a 97-64 home win over the University of Dallas on Jan. 20, 2024, exactly two years ago. 

Broussard finished with a season-high 34 points and was 10-15 from beyond the arc. He was 12-18 from the floor in 39 minutes and his 12 made FG's were also a season high. The previous program record for made 3's in a game was nine and was accomplished by AJ Hall on Jan. 12, 2022 against Southwestern University in the Gold Dome. Broussard's 10 treys are the most by a SCAC player in a game this season. 

Centenary tied its season high in points which was previously accomplished in a 94-89 win at McMurry University on Jan. 9 in Abilene, Texas. The Gents made a season-best 17 treys on Tuesday, their most in a game since hitting 22 in a 105-69 win over Southwestern on Jan. 12, 2022 - the same game in which Hall made nine treys. 

Centenary will return to action versus Concordia University in league play on Friday at 5:30 PM.
