Led 45-41 with 3:12 to go, then HC went on a 10-0 run to take a 51-45 lead.

Tyler Bezold, who hadn't scored in three periods, hit the only field goal that HC would score in the period, a 3-pointer, plus 8 for 8 from the FT line.

 

We're getting better. Still plenty of untapped potential. Too many turnovers and too many missed high percentage shots, plus another sluggish start (17-9) cost the Mustangs tonight.
