Antino Jackson and Isaiah Johnson rang in the New Year inside James A. Rhodes Arena in the best way possible Saturday, by ending Akron's non-conference schedule with hard-fought win over Lipscomb 80-73.
Antino Jackson and Isaiah Johnson rang in the New Year inside James A. Rhodes Arena in the best way possible Saturday, by ending Akron's non-conference schedule with hard-fought win over Lipscomb, 80-73.
But the final score belies how good Lipscomb was in the opening half. The Bison (4-13) smothered the Akron offense for large parts of Saturday night, forcing the Zips to shoot long jumpers and contested inside shots.
