On Wednesday night the team took the bus down to Maryland to play our first conference game Thursday night against Loyola University. Going into this game the team as well as the coaches had a chip on their shoulders because this was one of the teams that picked us to finish 10th in the league. We all felt like we had something to prove to everyone. Loyola was picked to finish in 3rd place. This was another game I had to watched from the bench and being that it was a conference game I was kind of upset that I would not be able to take the court with my teammates. Loyola came out strong in the first minute going up 5-1. We responded with our own 7-0 making the score 8-5. The game would go back and forth for the remainder of the half with Marist going into halftime up by 1 point.Loyola came out strong in the second half and never looked backed. We did not have the lead not one time in the second half. This was a game we gave away and should of won. We lost by a score of 76-63. Freshman Chavaughn Lewis continued to play well leading us in scoring with 16 points and Junior Devin Price added 11 points of his own. Our next game is on Sunday 12/4/2011 against Rider another conference team.
