COACH'S NOTES: LADY BOBCATS 77 LOSE TO LOUISBURG COMM COLL 80

On the road again, we knew it would be a tough game against conference opponent Louisburg College. We got a lead early and then exchange leads until bout 5 minutes left in the half. Down by 5 to start the half the Bobcats put up a series of stops but could not quite capture the lead. With 58 seconds left Khala Downing hit back to back 3s to give us a 1 point lead. For 25 seconds we played solid defensive and then committed a foul behind the 3 point line. Louisburg converted on 2/3 free throws but then got an offensive rebound and drew the foul (and 1). With 12 seconds left, Gabrielle Swinson drove the length of the court and found Ashley Thompson for a wide open three but the shot went over the rim. It was a hard fought game we just didn't get the stops we needed down the stretch to finish. Final score Louisburg 80 Bryant & Stratton 77. Khala Downing lead all scorers with 22 points, Gabby Swinson and Aneja Kemp added 18 & 17 points respectively.
