One bright spot for the Lady Lakers was junior Mandy

Cowan's 34 points, a new school record. Cowan also pulled down 14

rebounds. She is averaging a team high 16.5 points a game this

season and recorded her third double-double of the season on Saturday.

The Clayton State men overcame a 20 -point deficit in the second

half against Lander University, only to lose in the last second of the

game, 65-64. The Lakers went on a 16-0 run in the fourth quarter and held

a two -point lead with a minute left in the game. They worked the

clock down but could not convert, leaving Lander wide open for the

three pointer that handed the Lakers their eighth loss of the season.

Freshman Charlie Frazier Jr. led the team with 15 points. The

Lakers will travel to Kennesaw State for an exciting doubleheader

on Wednesday.
