10/13/07 - OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. - Joe Brown scored a game high 23 points and grabbed five rebounds as Red Evangel team defeated the White Evangel team 73-68 October 13 in the annual Red/White Game at Gaulke Activity Center.

"It was a good time and I was able to see the strength and weaknesses of the team," Coach Willie Holley said. "I believe that it was a very productive night."
