Grossmont falls in overtime
(1/29) The Griffins scrambled back to close the gap, but
were bested in overtime by visiting Miramar College 70-65.
Despite holding a slim 29-27 advantage heading into the
locker room at halftime, Grossmont trailed for almost the
entire second half.
Trailing 56-59 Elhadji N'Diaye drilled a deep,
desperation 3-pointer with 4 seconds remaining in regulation
to knot the score at 59-all.
The Griffins had trouble with Miramar's inside game all
night as evidenced by the rebound margin, 40-27 in the Jets
favor.
Grossmont next host Cuyamaca as part of a Mens-Womens
doubleheader Wednesday February 3rd at 7:00pm. |
