The Charger men's basketball team earned a hard fought 89-74 victory over the Waldorf Warriors Wednesday evening inside the Newman Flanagan Center.
 
"I liked the intensity and the urgency we started the game with tonight, being able to build a lead in the first half is a nice thing and I thought coming out of the half we were able to sustain for a good 10-12 minutes and played with a real killer instinct," said Head Coach Mark Svagera. "Blake Sindelar and Wil Lugar were great offensively, Matt Stillwill continues to direct for us."
 
Blake Sindelar posted a double-double with 23 points and grabbed 11 rebounds while shooting 50% from the field. Wil Lugar added 20 points and recorded a team-high five steals in the contest.
 
The Chargers in the first half built a ten-point lead following a pair of threes from Matthew Stilwill and Lugar to lead 16-6. A basket from Jamison Helmers off an assist from Lugar capped off the scoring for The Cliff as they led 45-29 heading into halftime.
 
With 9:52 remaining in the contest, a layup from Helmers extended the lead to 31.
 
Stilwill finished with 18 points and went a perfect six-for-six from the field and five-for-five from the free throw line. Helmers chipped in 13 points while Jaxson Wingert finished with 11 points and grabbed four rebounds.
 
"It was good for us to bounce back, we had a tough loss last Saturday, we talked about bouncing back and guys did that and were going to continue to push forward into the weekend." said Svagera.
 
The Chargers improve to 10-8 (5-5 GPAC) and will hit the road to take on the Doane Tigers in Crete, Nebraska. Tip-off is scheduled for 3 p.m.
