NOC Enid had five players in double figures in an 82-69 win over first place Seminole Monday night in Enid.

Gavin Barnard led the Jets posting a triple double with 17 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists.

Darian Grant aded Jets with 17 each while Noah Kuaye chipped in with 11.  Dontrell Yearby and Riley Shore added 10 each.

"The main point of emphasis was rebounding and taking care of the ball," said Jets coach Chris Gerber.  "The guys battled on the boards and valued the ball (the Jets had only eight turnovers).  I am so proud of how we played.  We get a bye this week to rest up for two tough games (Redlands and Connors) to end the regular season."

NOC Enid shot 54% from the floor against the Trojans.

The Jets (17-11) improved to 6-8 in conference while Seminole (19-8) fell to 10-3
