Mission Viejo, Calif. - Cypress College (7-10, 2-0) kept the
game close early into the second half, but Saddleback College (10-7, 1-1)
played well enough down the stretch to pull out a 73-55 Orange Empire
Conference victory at home on Friday.
Montel Taylor turned in another solid night by putting up a
team-high 18 points on 6 of 13 shooting from the floor. Taylor was one of four
Chargers to score in double figures, including Andre Winn who finished with 12
points, Kourtney Maxim with 11, and Julius Von Hanzlik with 10 points.
As a team, Cypress shot 36%, hitting 18 of 50 from the
floor, including 4 of 16 from beyond the arc.
The Chargers went into halftime only trailing by nine
points, and after a few buckets early in the second half found themselves down
by only four points with 16 minutes to go in the game, but a big run by the
Gauchos put the game out of reach.
Cypress College will look for its first Orange Empire
Conference victory of the year on Wednesday when it hosts Fullerton College at
5:30 p.m.
