NORTH NEWTON, Kan. - The Tabor College Men's Basketball Team ended its five game losing streak in arguably its most impressive performance of the season dominating Bethel College both offensively and defensively 77-42, Thursday night in North Newton, Kan.

In the second half the Bluejays offense and defense continued to take flight as Tabor outscored Bethel 45-23, in the second half en route to their largest margin of victory of the year.


All 13 Bluejays who suited up scored at least two points in the victory led by junior Damon Dechant (Kit Carson, Colo.) with 13 points while freshman Michael Janzen added 10 points.


Tabor (4-7 KCAC, 7-13 Overall) will travel to take on McPherson College, Saturday, Jan 30, at 7 p.m. in McPherson, Kan.
