RECORDS: Loyola 2-4; Hampton 1-4

IN BRIEF: Hampton cut a 13-point second half deficit to two, but couldn't get over the hump in falling to Loyola (MD) in the final game of the Legends Classic Detroit Subregional.

HOW IT HAPPENED

Hampton struggled hitting from the floor in the first half as they trailed 33-23 after hitting 25% from the floor.
In the second half, Hampton fell behind as much as 13 points after a Chuck Champion jumper for a 48-35 Loyola lead with 14:19 left.
The Pirates found a hint of rhythm going on an 18-7 run as Jermaine Marrow hit a layup off a feed from Akim Mitchell to get the Pirates to 55-53 with 6:55 left.
Loyola answered with an 11-4 spurt to take a 66-57 lead on an Andrew Kostecka layup with four minutes left. Hampton got a triple from Lysander Bracey and a pair of Ben Stanley free throws to trim the deficit to 66-62 with 2:55 left but that was as close as they got.

BEHIND THE NUMBERS
