Livingstone men fall short in
OT
By
Nick Bowton
Salisbury Post
Livingstone couldn't make a last-second shot to win the game in
regulation. It couldn't make one to force a second overtime,
either.
The
Blue Bears followed a lackadaisical first half with a second
half full of hustle Thursday night, but they lost to St.
Augustine's 76-73 in a game that ended up being about as back
and forth as you can get.
Livingstone (2-8, 0-5 CIAA) trailed 36-27 at halftime, but after
it started the second half on a 7-0 run, neither team led by
more than four points the rest of the way. Livingstone Brent
Cowles missed a rushed 3-pointer from the right corner with a
second left in overtime.
"It
was a fun game to play in," said Ivan Jackson, who scored a
team-high 14 points off the bench for the Blue Bears. "We just
wish we could have came out on top. Every game we pretty much
put one half together. We have to concentrate on putting two
halves together now."
That'd be nice, because the Blue Bears might have gotten their
first conference victory if they'd played the entire game the
way they did the second half.
In
the first half, Livingstone couldn't penetrate the St. Aug's
zone or make a jump shot. The Blue Bears looked less athletic
and less interested than the Falcons (8-4, 4-2).
