Knights Comeback Falls Short Against Roadarunners

Dalton, GA - The Knights were on the road in Dalton, Georgia as they were set to take on the Roadrunners of Dalton State College. It would be the second matchup between the two teams in three days as the Knights defeated the Roadrunners at home on Tuesday. The Knights would be down at the start after the Roadrunners would hit their first shot of the game but the Knights would come back as the first half would be back and forth between the two teams. The Knights offense would sputter late in the first half as the Roadrunners would start to pull away with 3:47 remaining in the first half. The Knights deficit would grow to 11 points before they would cut the lead down to 35-27 going into halftime. The Knights would continue to slowly cut into the lead as the deficit would only be five points with 10 minutes remaining in the game. The Knights would come back late in the game to take a 57-56 lead with 2:39 remaining in the game. Both teams would trade the lead down the stretch before the Roadrunners would hit a 3-pointer with 0:26 remaining. The Knights would have an opportunity to win the game at the buzzer but the shot would not fall as the Knights would lose 64-62. Tristan Harper led the Knights with 23 points and Maliek Sadler add a double-double with 15 points and 10 rebounds. The Knights will stay on the road as they finish up the regular season on Saturday, February 19th as they travel to Talladega, Alabama to take on the Tornadoes of Talladega College. Tip-off will be at 2 PM CST.
