Jordan Thompson had 22 points and six assists to lead NOC Enid to an 83-75 win over Redlands in the OCAC Conference opener in the Mabee Center Thursday night.

Daylon Andrews added 19 points including 10 of 10 from the foul line in the Jets' win.

"It was kind of an ugly win," said coach Chris Gerber.  "But I'll take ugly if it means a conference win."

Keivon Hudson and Chris Wiseman led the Jets on the glass with eight boards each while Raul Nunez added seven.  Thompson added three steals.

NOC Enid shot 49% from the floor and 71% from the line as the Jets sealed Thursday's win with late free throws.
