The guys lost to Manhattan Christian by a score of 96-60 on Friday night , but then went on to beat Barclay College in a well fought game, 64-61. Terry Jones has yet to return to the court after suffering an injury during the game against Calvary. Jerrell Harvey, senior from Cleveland, Ohio, dropped 15 points while freshman point guard, Hayden Hagerman, of Springfield, Ohio added another 20 points. Kris Holford had his entire family in Manhattan cheering their heads off as he contributed 19 points.
On Saturday, the team faced the Bears of Barclay College. During the Barclay game, Kris Holford and newcomer, Maurice Savage, Jr. fouled out. But the Saints bench rose to the occasion with some excellent defense and clutch shooting. Josiah Holloway shot the go ahead three-pointer, and the game was close for the remainder of the game.
These games bring the men to a 5-15 season record overall and 4-4 in the MCCC (3rd place).
