Highlanders Fall to Sage, Still Earn Post-Season Berth

ALBANY, NY— Knowing that a win would solidify their first trip to the post-season in over a decade, the Houghton Highlanders could not complete a late comeback run, falling to the Russell Sage Gators, 73-66.  Luckily for the Highlanders, the Elmira Soaring Eagles also lost to the Utica Pioneers, allowing the Highlanders to slide into the conference tournament as the number six seed.
