Strong Second Half Propels Blue Dragons Past Red Ravens

 

The Coffeyville Community College men's basketball team saw their four-game winning streak come to an end on Saturday afternoon, suffering a 74-68 loss to the Hutchinson Blue Dragons.

 

Both offenses struggled to start the afternoon, with the game tied at 14 twelve minutes into the game. The Red Ravens would open up a nine-point edge late in the first half, and led 33-27 heading into the locker room.

 

The Blue Dragons went on a key 11-0 run near the midway point of the second half, turning a 43-40 deficit into a 51-43 lead. The Red Ravens would be unable to close the gap from that point, and suffer their ninth loss of the season.

 

Jack Sorrell led CCC with 18 points in the loss, with Rashid Kuta having 15 points, and Ulysses Webb ending with 10 points.

 

Coffeyville is 18-9 on the season, and in a tie for fourth place with Cowley, Independence, Seward County, and Garden City. The Ravens currently hold the tiebreaker with the best overall record, and host the Pratt Beavers on sophomore night Wednesday at Nellis Hall.
