Agada-led Honey Badgers best lowly BlackJacks for 2nd consecutive win
Caleb Agada scored a game-high 19 points, including the dagger to seal an 86-75 Hamilton Honey Badgers' win over the Ottawa BlackJacks on Saturday in Hamilton.
The top-seeded Honey Badgers (9-3) picked up their second straight win, following an uncharacteristic two-game skid.
For Ottawa (3-8), the loss stings as it looked to build on its momentum from a dazzling comeback victory over the Scarborough Shooting Stars.
Pushing the lead to as much 21, and going into the break up 44-30, the Honey Badgers seemed to be on their way to an easy win.
However, Ottawa was able to shift the momentum in the third.
Down 57-43 at the 4:46 mark, the BlackJacks looked to get the ball rolling on another potential comeback, as they went on a 10-2 run to cut the lead down to 59-53.
Although Hamilton closed the quarter by outscoring Ottawa 7-3, taking a 66-56 lead, they could not halt the shift.
