Thirds Basketball v. Bement

Thirds basketball suffered their first loss of the season this afternoon, dropping a 38-26 decision at home against the Bement School to fall to a 2-1 mark for the season.  It was a valiant effort for the home hosts as they fought hard against the visitors who scored early and often to take an 18-12 at the half.
 
The Eagles would fall behind by as many as ten points early in the second half before scoring four in a row to reduce the deficit to six.  That was as close as they got with Bement hitting several long shots and the Eagles misfiring from close range en route to a double-digit loss.
 
Failure to connect from the free-throw line also took its toll for the Eagles as they shot a collective 3-for-13 from the charity stripe to lose a game that could have been a lot closer than the final score would indicate.
