Ohio men repeat script in losing to BG – big early lead goes up in smoke

Bobcat forward Jason Carter, shown here throwing down a slam during a victory over Marshall in early December, scored a team-high 22 points Tuesday evening in a Bobcat loss at Bowling Green.

Another early lead for the Ohio Bobcats dwindled away Tuesday evening as the Ohio men lost another Mid-American Conference game, 82-63, at Bowling Green. Ohio jumped to a quick lead of 7-0 and grew another lead before the Falcons went on scoring runs to close and then overcome the gap.

Ohio sophomore Teyvion Kirk made a layup to give the ’Cats a 13-4 lead, but the Falcons soon caught up to within one, at 13-12.
