UMES Hawks storm back, improve to 5-2 in MEAC

PRINCESS ANN, Maryland -- The University of Maryland Eastern Shore Men’s basketball team couldn’t have played much worse for the first 12 minutes of Saturday’s home matchup with Coppin State.

And the Eagles took advantage getting out to a 34-21 lead, while hitting often from the outside.

But the Hawks (13-10, 5-2 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference) clawed their way back to within three at the half and then went on to a 92-82 win.

Devon Walker and Dominique Elliott propelled the first-half comeback with 17 and 12 points respectively. Walker was dropping 3s with no conscience and finished the first half 5 of 6.

In the second half, it was Ryan Andino who was on from the outside dropping four from behind the arc and finishing with 14 points.
