Vallejo, CA -- In a
tale of two halves, the
Keelhaulers(7-6, 3-1 in Cal Pac)
came up a basket short at home
against a solid Oak performance by
the Menlo College Oaks, losing 65-62
on Saturday afternoon.
The Keelaulers jumped
out to an early halftime lead of
41-26, shooting 50% from the floor, but
the Oaks (6-5, 2-1 in Cal Pac)
tightened up defensively holding CMA
to just 32% in the second half and
finished the game with a 15-2 run to
steal the victory. The haulers
couldn't stop Chris Cobb who dropped
in a career high of 21 points on
8 for 11 shooting from the floor.
"This will be a tough
one to swallow, but I am pleased
with our program, where we are
headed, playing in competitive
games, and being in contention with
the top Cal Pac teams", quoted Head
Coach Tim Harrison.
Next up for Cal
Maritime are to big road games, at
Bethany College on Tuesday and the
leaders of the Cal Pac William
Jessup in Rocklin on Thursday.
