Loggers Come Up Short Against Danville

The Lincoln Land Logger men's basketball team returned home for the first time in four games, but fell to the Jaguars of Danville Area Community College, 76-64. 

In the first frame the Loggers struggled to find any stride, shooting just 23% from the field and missing all of their 6 three pointers. The Loggers failed to lead in the first half and after trailing 14-11 gave up a 10-1 run to find themselves down a game high of 12 points. Lincoln Land made no real imprint on their deficit, getting within 6 once, but ultimately went in to the half trailing by 9 at 31-22. 

The second half was where the Loggers got into the game, took the lead, and ultimately lost it. After a few buckets in the opening minutes by both teams, Lincoln Land put together a 7-0 run to get within 5 points. Just minutes later, trailing by 5 the Loggers got 6 straight points to take their first lead of the game at 46-45 after two free throws from Nate Moore. DACC took the lead right back on the next possession before Lincoln Land responded with back-to-back three from Gus McCrary and Jalen Ashley. The Loggers led by as many as 7 at 58-51 with just 6:00 to play. Danville had just 12 possessions the rest of the game, but they made the best of it scoring on every single one of them. A three-pointer capped a 10-2 run and gave Danville the lead back at 61-60. Lincoln Land initially hung with the Jaguars, not letting the game get away. The Loggers found themselves in a one possession game trialing by 3 with just over 2:00 to play after a Keshaun Harlan shot. Unfortunately, those would be the last points LLCC would get as Danville went 5/6 on free throws and added two other scores to run away with the last 9 points of the afternoon and winning 76-64.

Only two Loggers got to double digits, Harlan who ended with a team high 17. Harlan also stuffed the stat sheet with 4 rebounds, 4 assists, and 5 steals. Moore came off the bench to add 14 points.

Lincoln Land falls to 8-10 on the season and 4-6 in conference. They remain at home next to take on Lewis and Clark on Wednesday evening at 7:30 PM for Homecoming and Timber Takeover.
