LOCK HAVEN, Pa. – The Lock Haven Men’s Basketball team (16-8) fell to Kutztown (6-17) on Saturday, Feb. 11 by a score of 98-61. This win ended Kutztown’s nine-game losing streak.
“Last week was a little tough for us,” Lock Haven Head Coach Mike Nestor said. “We just got to get ourselves back in action. Hopefully we will get ourselves refocused next week and take care of business.”
Before the game, Lock Haven honored the five seniors on the roster; James Price, Jayy Davis, Adam Freese, Kyle Everhart, and Dymir Montague, who was not active.
“We’re fortunate we have five great seniors that have just been such a great asset to the program,” Nestor mentioned.
Lock Haven entered into the game with a smaller roster with four players being out, two of them being starters, Montague and Jalen Gorham.
“Missing two starters is obviously a big factor,” Nestor mentioned. “One of them being a senior is just tough to have, especially what they bring to the table. The hope is everybody will be full strength by Wednesday.”
Kutztown jumped out to a 17-9 lead early, and did not look back, going into halftime with a commanding 52-28 lead. The momentum stayed with the visiting Golden Bears as they cruised to a victory over the Bald Eagles.
