BYUH finishes China trip 1-2

The BYUH men's basketball team returned from China yesterday finishing 1-2 on their three-game trip.

After dropping an 80-71 decision to the Ji Ling Tigers, the Seasiders split a pair of games with Xinjiang, the defending national champion of the Chinese Basketball Association.

Jake Chrisman's layup with three seconds left gave BYUH a 79-78 win in the first of the doubleheader. Chrisman finished with 33 points in the game while Thomas Watkins hit three 3-pointers and finished with 15 points.

Xinjiang came back to win the second game of the doubleheader 78-75 behind 28 points from Xue Yu Yang, who was drafted by the Denver Nuggets in last year's NBA Draft.

Eleven Seasiders participated in the trip. They were joined in China by Micah Casey, recently released from his LDS mission in Japan, and China's Yu Liang Le.
