            Conway, Ark. – Playing for the first time in 2025, #13 Central Baptist College men's basketball hosted the Pioneers of Crowley's Ridge College tonight for the first time as an American Midwest Conference rival inside A.R. Reddin Fieldhouse. #13 CBC (12-3, 6-0 AMC) never trailed, leading by as many as 30, and saw the score only tied once, cruising to a 90-64 win over CRC (9-6, 3-2 AMC).

            Four players finished in double figures scoring, led by Brian Alexander, who had a career-high 19 points off the bench. Defense was the name of the game for the Mustangs, as they held the Pioneers to just 37 percent shooting from the field and forced 19 turnovers, which they converted into 20 points.
