Salt Lake City, UT - The Westminster Griffins Men's Basketball team hosted Park University Gilbert (AZ) for the first of two back-to-back matchups this weekend, earning a hard-fought 67-60 victory on Friday night. Trailing by one at halftime, the Griffins found their rhythm in the second half to secure the win.

Chase Potter, fresh off his RMAC Offensive Player of the Week recognition, continued his strong season, leading the team with 16 points, 10 rebounds, and a steal for a double-double performance. Ryan Rubenskas added 10 points and four rebounds, providing key support in the victory.

For the Buccaneers, Tanner Pate led the way with 12 points, including two three-pointers, but it wasn't enough to overcome Westminster's second-half surge.

The two teams will face off again tomorrow, with tip-off scheduled for 4:00 PM. Fans can purchase tickets in advance at WestminsterGriffins.com or watch the game live on the RMAC Network.
