Lynch’s 24 points carry SU to 68-55 win

BATON ROUGE, Louisiana -- After spending the first few weeks of the season watching from the bench, Southern senior guard Trey Lynch made sure his return to the F.G. Clark Activity Center was one to remember.

Lynch — who missed almost a month after suffering a sprained ankle before the start of the season — dropped 24 points on 8-of-16 shooting from the field, including five scores from beyond the arc in the Jaguars’ 68-55 win over Dillard on Friday night.

“Any time you come in and do your job, your points are going to add up,” Lynch said. “(I just wanted to) get back in the rhythm. I spent three and a half weeks on a sprained ankle and I just wanted to get into the flow of the game.”

Lynch played a limited role in Southern’s last few games, but coach Roman Banks considered Friday as his official return to the court as he played a team-leading 31 minutes.
