In the Region VI Tournament Quarterfinals against #7 Butler, the Saints had the high of holding a lead for nearly the entire second half before the Grizzlies hit a pair of free throws with 6.2 seconds left to tie the game and eventually send it to overtime tied at 71. In the extra period, it was all Grizzlies, as a depleted and undermanned Saints lineup struggled to keep pace with the team that unseated them as Jayhawk West Champs this year and Butler went on to knock off Seward 87-77 to end the Saints season at 15-16.

The last four times being the homestanding Saints doing the celebrating and the year before that, the Butler Grizzlies hoisting the hardware. Saturday night the Greenhouse was the place for another celebration and unfortunately it was the Grizzlies doing it once again as Butler hammered Seward from the opening tip, beating the Saints 98-79 to end Seward’s run at the top of the conference.

The Saints forced 25 Broncbuster turnovers, Seward shot 41 free throws in the game, and picked up 17 steals in the contest, but in the end, it came down to the Saints defense and its inability to slow down the Garden City attack that shot 53% in the game and outrebounded Seward 45-22 to give the Busters a big 89-83 win over the Saints and hand Seward its seventh Jayhawk West loss of the season.

First it was a half court buzzer beater in the Region VI Semifinals last season, their last meeting it was an on fire Pratt team downing the Saints in Pratt, and Saturday it was once again the sharpshooting Beavers getting the best of Seward 86-76 to drop the Saints back to 12-12 on the year.

The Saints went into Wednesday night’s contest with Colby 0-7 on the road in 2014-2015, but used a solid team effort to get that monkey off their backs, blowing the homestanding Trojans away by a count of 85-62 to crawl back to the .500 mark in Jayhawk West play on the year.

In a game that was a dog fight to start, the Saints held a 5-4 lead to the 13:13 mark of the first half, but it was downhill from there as Seward was outscored by 16 in the first half and was never close in the second half in the 24 point defeat.

Not only were the Saints starring their second conference loss in four tries in the eyes late in the contest, but it was the way that that loss came about as Seward was blown out 97-73, suffering their worst Jayhawk West loss since the 2007-2008 season when they also lost to the Cougars by 24.

Friday against the host Texans, the Saints hung around most of the game, but a 34-19 disparity on the glass eventually did them in in a 82-68 loss to the NJCAA’s 3rd ranked team. In a quick turnaround Saturday, the Saints built up a 14 point first half lead and did just enough to hang on late in a 68-62 win over NMMI to move to 3-5 on the year.
