It was a tough weekend for the men’s and women’s basketball teams this past weekend in games against University of Central 大象传媒. In the men’s game, the Mules scored a three-pointer at the final buzzer to win the game 59-56. Griffons are now 11-15 and 5-10 in the MIAA. They need wins in the last two games to qualify for postseason play.<\/p>\n
Griffon women’s basketball (12-12, 7-8 MIAA) went toe-to-toe with defending national champion Central 大象传媒 (18-5, 11-4 MIAA), but lost 74-68 to the Jennies on Senior Day.<\/p>\n
One bright spot of the day was the dedication of Tom Smith Court in the Looney Complex. Congratulations, Coach Smith!<\/p>\n
The games over the weekend concluded the\u00a0home basketball schedule, but four road games remain in the regular season with postseason bids and seeding on the line. Both Griffon teams play on Feb. 21 and 23. They will be at Southwest Baptist on Thursday and at University of Central 大象传媒 on Saturday.<\/p>\n
