LUBBOCK, Texas (January 31, 2026) — Lubbock Christian ended January on a high note, dominating Cameron with a convincing 107-50 victory on Saturday at Rip Griffin Center.
The home team secured the win by scoring 58 points in the paint and forcing 15 turnovers, which led to 25 points. Lubbock Christian's bench contributed significantly with 36 points, while Cameron managed only 14 points in the paint throughout the game.
Lubbock Christian improved to 18-3 overall and 9-2 in Lone Star Conference competition with a decisive victory. Cameron fell to 6-14 overall and 3-9 in the LSC standings.
The Chaps set the tone early, with
Amondo Miller Jr. scoring a layup just nine seconds after the tip-off, assisted by
Lucas Mercandino. The team continued to dominate offensively, as
Kendall Dow nailed a three-pointer at the 19:17 mark, fueling their early momentum.
When Dow hit again from beyond the arc at the 13:14 mark, Lubbock Christian really took over. Cameron did not score a single point for the next 10 minutes and three seconds, as the Chaps went on a 30-0 run to build out a 45-9 lead. The Aggies finally broke their drought with a layup at the 3:50 mark, but the Chaps still led by 35 at the break, thanks in part to Dow's buzzer-beating jumper. The senior scored all of his team-high 21 points in the opening 20 minutes.
The Chaparrals continued to extend their advantage in the second half, breaking the 50-point threshold with just under nine minutes to play on a three-pointer from
