First Half Shooting Leads to Knights Loss

COCHRAN, Ga. - The Knights were back in action on their home court on Wednesday, January 28th as they faced the Bobcats of Georgia College. The Knights were looking to end a three game losing streak while the Bobcats won their last contest. The Knights and Bobcats played earlier in the season with the Bobcats coming out on top 95-83.

The game started off close as both teams hit shots with the game tied at 7-7. The Knights went on a cold streak from the field as the Bobcats scored 12 straight points to pull ahead. The deficit continued to grow throughout the first half as it reached 20 points in the final minutes of the half and the Knights trailed 36-19 heading into halftime.

The deficit grew again in the second half as the Knights trailed by 24 points with 14:59 remaining in the game. The Knights slowly tried to chip away at the Bobcats lead and were able to eat away at the deficit. The deficit was cut to 11 points but it would be too much to overcome as the Knights lost 75-61.

Joshua Robertson led the Knights with 16 points, eight of which came from the free throw line.

The Knights will be back in action on Saturday, January 31st as they head to Aiken, South Carolina to take on the Pacers of USC-Aiken. Tip off is scheduled for 3:30 PM EST.
