Ottumwa, IA – Sophomore Don McHenry (Milwaukee, WI/Hawaii-Hilo) erupted for a season-high 35 points to lead No. 7 Indian Hills Men's Basketball to an 80-70 victory at the Hellyer Center over Highland Community College (IL) on Saturday night.

The guard also averaged 5.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game.

In a pivotal road match at No. 17 Triton College (IL), McHenry tallied 29 points while going 12-12 from the free throw line in 26 minutes of action. McHenry added five boards as the Warriors went on to win 98-88 for the team's fifth win over a top-20 team this season.

McHenry followed up with his strongest performance of the year against Highland with his first 30-point effort of the year. The sophomore connected on 11-15 shots, including 4-6 from three-point range to set a new career-high with 35 points.

Over his last three contests, McHenry is averaging 27.7 points per game while shooting 55.5 percent (10-18) from three-point range. On the season, McHenry is averaging a team-high 15.0 points per game.
