HAWKS WIN FINAL HOME GAME
February 15, 2006 -
The CSM men's basketball team won their final
home game of the season, defeating Rockville 97-86 on "Sophomore Night".
CSM players Marko Hamlin, Anthony Stowe, and Bruce Fort played their final
game in the "Hawks Nest". Anthony Stowe enjoyed his final home game,
leading all scorer's with 29 points, Marko Hamlin had 18 points, and Bruce
Fort played a solid game scoring 4 points. Keith Wagner added 21
points for the Hawks, and Sean Ussery scored in double figures with 14 pts.
Sylvester Brooks led Rockville with 23 points, and Fred Lyles added 16 for
the Knights.
Both teams started out ice cold from the field, as only eight points were
scored in the first four minutes, with the score tied at 4-4. The
scoring heated up, as the Hawks jumped to a 9-4 lead, but David Jones'
basket tied the game for the Knights at 12-12 with 11:50 left in the half.
That was as close as Rockville (11-12, 6-8) would come the rest of the game,
as the Hawks moved to a 47-32 halftime lead. Anthony Stowe's basket
gave the Hawks their biggest lead of the game 58-34, with 15:35 left to
play.
Rockville battled back, cutting the lead to thirteen points, and then to
eleven points, but CSM (7-16, 5-9) had an answer to every Rockville rally.
The Hawks sealed the game from the free throw line, as Rockville was forced
to foul, and CSM scored eight of their final ten points from the charity
stripe.
CSM will end the season with a pair of road games, at Hagerstown on Friday
(7:00 PM) and at Takoma Park on Saturday (1:00 PM), before participating in
the MDJUCO Tournament the last week of February.
