Undefeated Nighthawks Soar Past Bulldogs
The top-ranked National Park College (NPC) Nighthawk men’s basketball team (17-0)
remained undefeated on the 2023-24 season with a convincing 109-58 victory over Shorter
College Thursday.
From the opening tipoff, NPC pounded the paint with dunks, layups and jumpers to take
the lead and never look back. Led by sophomore forward Nakavieon White (Odessa, Texas)
and sophomore guard Keryn Collins (Dallas, Texas), the Nighthawks erupted on a 40-9
run over the first 17 minutes and cruised to a lopsided 50-16 halftime advantage.
Utilizing their deep bench, the Nighthawks spread their scoring across multiple student-athletes
over the final 20 minutes. Sophomore guard Brody Tucker (Kirby) led the attack for
NPC, knocking down five three-pointers in the second half as National Park College
cruised to its 17th victory of the season.
Tucker and White led the Nighthawks in scoring with 18 points apiece. Collins and
sophomore guard Ja’Bryant Hill (Dallas, Texas) each added 11 points, while freshman
forward Hunter Burke (Vandervoort) finished with 10 points in the win.
The Nighthawks play host to North Arkansas College Monday, January 29 at 6:30 p.m.
