Valparaiso Beacons, Ind. (AP) Kenny Strawbridge scored 14 points as Evansville Aces beat Valparaiso 63-62 on Saturday night.

The Beacons (6-17, 2-10) were led by Cooper Schwieger, who recorded 22 points. Isaiah Stafford added 15 points for Valparaiso. Jaxon Edwards also recorded 10 points, four steals and two blocks.
