Huskies drop another close game, this time to Bowling Green

BOWLING GREEN, OH. — Over the past few weeks, the men’s basketball team has been in its share of close games.

It started with a one-point loss to the University of Wisconsin—Green Bay Phoenix to close out the non-conference slate and has moved into Mid-American Conference play.

Three of the Huskies’ first four league games were settled by three points or fewer, and they added another game to that ledger Saturday on the road at Bowling Green State University as the Falcons held on for the 66-64 win.

"We had seven or eight chances to take the lead in the second half,” Head Coach Mark Montgomery said in a news release.
