Jackson senior Blake Reynolds and his teammates wasted little time distancing themselves from Charleston in the third-place game of the SEMO Conference Tournament.
Reynolds, who has signed to play at Yale, poured in points as the Indians built an insurmountable lead in the early going.
The three-year varsity starter finished with a career night, scoring 39 points. He had 22 in the first half, another eight in the third and nine more in the fourth.
