GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - Fueled by a 15-point halftime lead, 48-33, the Davenport University men's basketball team was able to pick up its second win of the season, 91-78, over Great Lakes Christian on Wednesday night.

Also scoring in double-figures for Davenport were Jakub Dombek and Jaylen Hodges, each with 18.
