Box Score 12/10/14 – Bronx, NY

Bronx got off to a great start as they ran out to a 20-4 in the first four minutes of play.  But the offense then went ice cold as BCC only scored 3 points during the next 10 minutes.  The Hawks then went on a 12-2 run and chipped away at the lead from there.  With 5:20 left in the half a Rockland 3-pointer closed the score to 23-21.  Two made free throws on the next possession made it a new game and then RCC took the lead with a put back layup.  The Broncos were able to regain some scoring as they took back the lead and went into the locker room at the break with a slim 30-28 point lead. 

BCC started the second much like the first as they posted a 14-2 run to give the team some breathing room once again.  The Broncos led by as many as 16 in the second half, but with 3 minutes left, Rockand was able to cut the lead to single digits at 9, trailing 63-54.  As time wound down, Bronx was able to put off any comeback bid and pulled away for the victory.
