Josh, a 6-foot-5 senior guard from Perth, Australia, scored a season-high 27 points as the No. 19 Pioneers recorded an incredible come-from-behind, last-second, 88-87 road win over Central Christian College, Kan. He hit 8-of-10 shots from the field, including 5-of-6 3-pointers, and made all six of his free throws. "Josh was pretty awesome. He made plays the whole game,” WBU coach Ty Harrelson said.
 
Josh also led the No. 19 Pioneers in scoring with 13 points in a near road upset (72-69) of sixth-ranked, undefeated Langston, Okla. In the two games, Josh averaged 20 points and totaled six rebounds while shooting 59 percent from the field (10-of-17), 64 percent from 3-point range (7-of-11), and 100 percent (13-of-13) from the free-throw line.
 
The Pioneers (8-3, 3-1 Sooner Athletic Conference) take a break from league play against Mary Hardin-Baylor in Belton at 7 p.m. Tuesday.
