LARGO, Md. – Harford forward
Anthony Ifeacho dropped a career high 20 points, but the Fighting Owls fell on the wrong side of an 89-79 score line versus the Prince George's Owls, Wednesday evening at the Novak Field House.
The redshirt freshman's stellar performance included a 16-point first half showing, which positioned Harford with a one-point lead at the half. He tops a previous scoring best of 18, set just days prior in the Fighting Owls dominate win over Valley Forge.
Harford falls to 4-7 (1-1 MD JUCO) with the loss, while PG improves to 9-4 (3-3)
Turning Point
A back-and-forth bout featured six lead changes and nine instances where the score was tied. Harford's offense showed heart in a tough road environment, fighting back from PG's biggest lead of the night (10) midway through the opening half to eventually take the lead.
The Fighting Owls offense would finally run out of gas in the final two minutes, making just one of their final four attempts from the field while PG sealed the victory from the charity stripe (7-for-10).
