Barons Upend Roadrunners


DALTON, Ga. – Dalton State got their last homestand of the season off to a rocky start on Thursday falling to Brewton-Parker (Ga.), 69-60, in SSAC action at Mashburn Arena in Dalton.
 
THE FIRST HALF
  • BP controlled the game early, jumping out to a 7-2 lead in the first two minutes of play.
  • Dalton State clawed back to tie it at 9-9 after a Jaelin Ferrell trey with 13:22 left in the first half.
  • The Barons drew the lead back out to 7 points (18-11), but the Roadrunners responded with a 12-3 run capped by a Franklin Almonte three-ball to take a 23-21 lead with just over 5 minutes to go in the period.
  • Emmanuel Hit a three-pointer with 4:13 on the clock to kick start a 16-5 run for Brewton-Parker to close the half as they carried a 37-28 lead into halftime.
THE SECOND HALF
  • Lance Smith and Grant Sanders got the first 4 points of the half for the Barons as they extended their lead to double-digits.
  • A response from the Birds was needed and they got it with a 13-2 spurt to close within 2 points at 43-41 with 15:34 left in regulation.
  • DS kept it close and finally snagged a 2-point lead (47-45) just shy of the halfway mark in the period after an Almonte jumper in the paint.
  • Kenny Colwell nailed a three-ball next trip down court to give the Barons back the lead, one they wouldn't surrender.
  • The Roadrunners kept the game within striking distance, but they couldn't get over the hump as the Barons answered the call every time the Birds tried to gain control as BP held on for a 69-60 win.
