Heartbreak for the Eagles Saturday afternoon as they suffered an overtime loss to a conference matchup. The College of Southern Nevada bested the Eagles by 4 points 87-83.

Gbenga Olubi led all scorers with an impressive 31 points. Olubi also added in 5 rebounds and 2 assists in the loss. Dyson Lighthall also stood out with 16 points 9 rebounds and 2 blocks. Noah McCord did his best to aid his team, leading them in three categories with 9 rebounds, 5 assists, and 3 steals.

The Eagles hope to rally quickly as they face two nationally ranked conference opponents this coming week facing the College of Southern Idaho at home on Wednesday and then traveling to face the nationally ranked Salt Lake Bruins on Saturday
