Turner scored 13 points for BC (1-1), which opened the season with a loss to Nicholls State that stretched the losing streak to 20.Coach Jim Christian said his players werent dwelling on the skid -- especially the five freshmen and two transfers who had no part of it.Seven of them are 1-1. Those guys dont worry about any of that, he said. People outside worry about it -- and they should. But inside, we just needed to get better.
