Hatters fall to Ohio 55-45 in low-scoring affair

DeLand, Fla. -- The Stetson University men's basketball team dropped its fourth game in a row Saturday afternoon as the Hatters fell 55-45 in a low-scoring affair against Ohio University at the Edmunds Center.
 
The Hatters (2-6) fell behind early as the Bobcats (7-2) struck first, but after a Chase Johnston 3-pointer capped off a 9-2 Stetson run the Hatters held a 9-4 lead over Ohio with 14:05 to go in the first half. That was the only lead Stetson held in the half as the Bobcats outscored the Hatters 25-12 to close out the first half, sending the Hatters into the break facing a 29-21 deficit.
 
Out of the break, the Hatters kept the contest within two possessions through the first 10 minutes of the second half, but by the 9:13 mark Stetson fell behind 41-29. Over the next six minutes the Hatters outscored the Bobcats 14-5, and after an and-one from Stephan Swenson with 3:41 left in regulation, Stetson only trailed by three, 46-43. Shortly after, Ohio went on its own 9-4 run, highlighted by a Tommy Schmock trey all but cementing the victory for the Bobcats as Stetson was unable to overcome the deficit and ultimately fell 55-45. 
 
Rob Perry led all scorers on the night as the junior tallied 17 points and added two assists and two rebounds. Christiaan Jones recorded eight points of his own while sophomore Josh Smith brought down 11 boards. 
 
The Stetson University men's basketball team will be back in action on Monday, Dec. 13 as the Hatters continue their homestand and host Johnson University. Tip-off is set for 7 p.m. and will be streamed on ESPN+.
