Madison Mavericks: Shorthanded squad comes up short in Omaha

Julian Walters’ 27 points were not enough in the Madison Mavericks (2-2 Official Basketball Association) 112–99 loss to the Omaha Cuttaz (2-2 OBA).

The Mavericks came out strong but failed to maintain the same high energy throughout the second half. Fatigue set in, and the Mavericks were unable to get defensive stops down the homestretch of the game.

The Mavericks traveled to Omaha shorthanded as they were missing seven players in the contest and only traveled with eight total players.

Among the missing was Dave Turner, the Mavericks player who dropped 23 points in each of the last two games for the team.
