Jayhawks Lose At The Buzzer

The JCC Jayhawks men's basketball team (2-4) went on the road to face the Seahawks of Cecil Community College at the Murph Shapiro Basketball Classic hosted by Monroe CC.   After a late start, the Jayhawks played a close first half with the Seahawks with the Seahawks taking a 5 points lead (44-39) at halftime.  The Jayhawks fell further behind, trailing by as many as 16 points in the second half, but fought their way back into the game.  A clutch 3 pointer by #4 Michael Bush (Harlem) gave the Jayhawks the lead with less than 16 second remaining.  However, the Jayhawks had a late turnover and the Seahawks turned that into a last second layup to give the Seahawks the 89-88 win over the Jayhawks.  

The Jayhawks were led by #34 Jean Toussaint who had a double double of 27 points and 15 rebounds; #4 Michael Bush (Harlem) had 15 points and 5 assists; #32 Brandon Kemp (Brooklyn) had 11 points and 4 rebounds; #21 Brandon Banna had 11 points; #12 Tyler Moffe had 8 points, 5 assists, and 3 rebounds; #20 Tanner Dahl (Westfield) had 8 points; and #10 Derek Ice (Bronx) had 5 points.
