FROM LEHIGH

HOUSTON, Texas - The Lehigh men's basketball team fought back from a double-digit first-half deficit to take a second half lead, but undefeated Houston used an 11-0 run to erase a one-point deficit and down the Mountain Hawks 80-66 on Sunday afternoon. Junior Conroy Baltimore was a spark off the bench, finishing with six points and a career-high 13 rebounds. Senior Mackey McKnight had 14 points and seven assists in front of many friends and family as part of a homecoming trip to where he played high school basketball.

The game was the first of four straight contests as part of the Progressive Legends Classic. The Mountain Hawks head to Pittsburgh on Wednesday followed by a trip to South Dakota next Monday for games against Texas Southern and South Dakota State or Howard.
