Oneida Baptist falls short in 58-49 loss to Leslie County

HYDEN — Oneida Baptist hung tough before dropping a 58-49 decision to Leslie County on Friday.

Freshman guard Jacob Rogers led the Mountaineers with 21 points. 

“I was extremely proud of our guys for battling through significant foul trouble and for their overall effort in a hostile environment,” Oneida Baptist coach Larry Gritton said. “We kept ourselves in the game with our defense and if we continue defending the way we are we will win our share of games. Our guys will get some well deserved rest and days off before we head to Pineville for the Chain Rock Classic.”
