PALOS HILLS, Ill. — No. 15-ranked Milwaukee Area Technical College men's basketball extended its winning streak to five Tuesday night, holding off Moraine Valley in a 98-92 road win. The Stormers led 50-48 at halftime and outscored the Cyclones 58-54 in the second half, marking their first single-digit victory of the season after four straight double-digit blowouts.

"We took care of business and got a big Region 4 win on the road," Stormers head coach Randy Casey said. "We set a team goal to win the last five remaining games of the semester and this put us one step closer to reaching that goal."

Sophomore point guard Raydelh Boutin paced MATC with 23 points, including 15 after the break to help the Stormers maintain control down the stretch. Beyond Boutin's scoring, four other Stormers reached double figures. Sophomore shooting guard Noah Daniels added 17 points with two made 3-pointers. Sophomore transfer Jayden Hackett matched him with 17 points, hitting three shots from long range. Freshman Turon Rivers contributed 12 points, all inside the arc, while freshman reserve Jason Lawani chipped in 11 off the bench.
