The Vikings went on the road to East Chicago and picked up a 66-51 win in what proved to be a career night for Mason Jones as he eclipsed the 1,000 point mark for his illustrious career in a Valparaiso uniform.

While Mason's game-high 29 point 11 rebound game led the way, many other players stepped up to provide a spark. Jack Smiley had 17 points and 4 rebounds, while Derrick Brooks showed great toughness battling back from some tightness to contribute 13 points and 6 rebounds himself.

The Vikings capped the night with a 24-3 run to finish the game. This was the result of some great team defense. All in all, it was a great test on the road during finals week nonetheless. Valpo continues its road trip Saturday at historic Northside Gym at Elkhart for a program-wide triple header.
