COLUMBUS, Miss.- Following up on their resounding 20-point victory in their season opener at Toccoa Falls, Huntingdon Men's Basketball couldn't find their rhythm offensively, shooting 35% from the field and 20% from the three point line in a 89-61 loss at MUW. 

First Half

  • The Owls caught fire at the start of the game, opening things up with an 8-0 run through the first six minutes. Huntingdon finally got on the scoreboard at the 14:22 mark following a Marcus Townsend layup, but the Hawks still trailed 10-2 nearing the 13 minute mark
  • Huntingdon started to find some traction midway through the half, as Townsend, Myles Murphy, and Owen LaRocca pieced together a scoring spurt that brought the Hawks within seve, 19-12, by the 9:48 mark.
