MCLA Sports Info 08:54AM / Monday, December 08, 2008
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. - Despite having five players finish in double figures, MCLA (0-7) fell 63-76 in a non-conference game to visiting Johnson State College. Bobby Shedd (Johnson, VT) led all scoring with 24 points to 11 rebounds to lead the Badgers over their host. He was joined by John Foley (Valley Stream, NY) and Michael Bosch (Carrolton, GA) who also finished in double figures with 16 and 13 respectively.
The teams battled back and forth, but MCLA just couldn't close the margin and the closest they would come would be seven points in the second half.
Mike Callahan (Carmel, NY) was the leading scorer for MCLA with 14 points. Chris Harris (Boston, MA) followed with 12 points, Mike Perreault (Whitinsville, MA) added 11, and Jon Greenberg (Antwerp, Belgium) and Kris McLaughlin (Pittsfield, MA) both finished with 10 a piece.
On a bright note, the Trailblazers out-rebounded the Badgers by a 41-38 margin.
Even at 4-4, Johnson State is done for the semester and will start up again on January 9th when they will play New England College.
The Trailblazers will try to capture a win tomorrow when they head to Vassar College for a 4:00 game.
