The Carroll College men’s basketball team used a familiar formula to down Montana Tech.

The Saints put together another solid defensive effort as they won a Frontier Conference game 74-58.

“We played man and played awfully hard,” said Carroll coach Gary Turcott. “The kids came off the bench played hard.”

Carroll held Tech to 1-of-14 from the 3-point line and also outrebounded Tech 31-29.

The Saints were led by Josh Saunders with 20 points and Derek Johnson added 18.

Carroll was 10-of-28 from beyond the 3-point arc.

Ten players scored for the Saints in Saturday’s win.

Carroll led 37-30 at the half and pulled away over the final 20 minutes.

Montana Tech was led by Dusan Veselinovic who scored 20 points.

Carroll will host Rocky Mountain College next weekend.
