Reggie Lynch goredbirds.com
(Indianapolis, IN) – Freshman Reggie Lynch set an all-time Missouri Valley Conference record Wednesday night. The Illinois State center blocked five Sienna shots, giving him 96 on the season and establishing a new freshman record.
Unfortunately the record came in a loss that ended the season for the Redbirds. ISU lost 61-49 at Sienna in the semi finals of the College Basketball Insider tournament. The very young Redbirds finish the season with a record of 18-16. The Saints move to the finals carrying a record of 18-17.
Lynch also led the Redbirds with 15 points. He finishes the season with four more blocks than Creighton’s Benoit Benjamin (1982-83) for that freshman record and seven behind Jeff Wilkins’ 103 blocks for the ISU single season record.
There are no Missouri Valley Conference teams left in post-season play.

Three more road wins so far in @ValleyHoops as @BradleyUMBB @BelmontMBB & @UIC_MBB capture road wins. Looks like @DrakeBulldogsMB will do so too. #FatherHarry
Well @RacersWBB followed the men's example and swept Iowa in the @ValleyHoops race! Racers are 6-1 & if @BelmontWBB holds on to their Iowa sweep, the Bruins and Racers will be tied for first. What a trip for those two teams! #FatherHarry
After today's action, @EIUWBB is 8-0 in @OVCSports play. 4 teams @usiwbb @TTUWBB @LRTrojans @LindenwoodWBB are tied at 6-2. Six other teams are under .500. Great race to the finish lies ahead. #FatherHarry
Really entertaining game between @BelmontMBB & @UEAthletics_MBB. Under four minutes left in a one point game. Gabriel Pozzato back in the Aces' lineup. Rogers is playing like I've expected. Triples are dropping. It's fun and @kylejpeach bringing it on #ThePlus #FatherHarry
