Albany State men swat away Clark Atlanta

ALBANY, Georgia — Like a buzzing mosquito that constantly aggravates on a hot summer South Georgia night, Clark Atlanta played the role to perfection Monday night at the HPER Gymnasium.

After watching an 18-point advantage get whittled to a basket with 3:25 left, Albany State figured out a way to exterminate the Panthers and take a 92-85 victory.

“That was a typical Clark Atlanta team,” Albany State men’s basketball coach Michael Moore said. “They always get those good athletes from the city that plays good basketball. Plus, their coach does a good job too.”

The Rams used a pair of 3-point plays at the free throw line from Darshtyn Baker and Elijah Jordan to gain themselves some breathing room, then their defense cut down Clark Atlanta’s rally attempt.
