Harford Basketball Drops Doubleheader to Baltimore City

From the HCC sports desk:

BALTIMORE—The Harford men’s and women’s basketball teams dropped a doubleheader to Baltimore City as the women fell, 91-38, and the men were bested, 110-94, on Wednesday night at Baltimore City Community College.

The Fighting Owls (3-11, 0-6 MDJUCO) women’s anemic offense managed just 19 points in each half for a season-low 38 points against the Panthers (13-0, 8-0 MDJUCO) as they lost their 10th straight game. The Fighting Owls (10-5, 4-3 MDJUCO) men took a 23-point, 56-33, deficit into the half, but cut the Panther (7-9, 2-5 MDJUCO) lead to 16 by the conclusion, thanks to a 61-point second half.

Freshman Aniya Rolle (Baltimore, Md./Edgewood) was the only Owl player in double-digits as she scored 10 points, while Tanira McClurkin and Chanet Wallace paced Baltimore City with 18 points each.

Redshirt freshman AJ Fofanah (Bowie, Md./Milton Hershey/Rider) led way for the Harford men, totaling 16 points on the night, while also gathering seven rebounds. Freshman Denard Dickens (Williamsburg, Va./Warhill) added 14 points and dished out four assists, while freshman JoJo Woodruff (Capitol Heights, Md./Wise) and sophomore Rodney Edwards (Rockville, Md./Wheaton/MC-Rockville) each tallied 11 points.

Both Fighting Owls teams return to action on Saturday when they host Cecil for a doubleheader. The women will look for their first conference win as they tip-off at 1:00 p.m., while the men follow with a 3:00 p.m. contest against the No. 7 Seahawks (14-1, 8-0 MDJUCO), where they will look to snap a two-game losing skid.
