LARGO, Md. - Despite holding a nine-point halftime lead, the Harford men's basketball team (6-13, 4-6 MD JUCO) lost at Prince George's (10-9, 5-5 MD JUCO) on Saturday, 91-83.

The Fighting Owls were forced to play without team leader Carlos Brown, who did not travel with the team to stay with his new family. Brown missed the start of the last game, a home contest, because of the birth of his second child, a daughter. One of their top scorers and long-range threats, Dimitrious Jelen-Joy, missed all but nine minutes of action due to an illness.

George Cooke pulled in a personal-best 18 rebounds, including a season-best 12 offensive boards. Colby Giacubeno scored 29 points with five 3-pointers, while Malachi Seney and Jeff Joynes added 19 and 17, respectively.

The Fighting Owls travel to CCBC Catonsville on Tuesday.
