Towson rallied in the second half at Utah, but couldn’t overcome a late first-half run and lost 67-57. The Tigers moved within two possessions several times down the stretch, yet Utah answered each push. Coach Pat Skerry said the improved ball movement and team connection after halftime were lessons to build on.

By the Numbers
  • Final score: Utah 67, Towson 57.
  • Ben Roseborough and Jaquan Womack led Towson with 13 points apiece.
  • Towson outscored Utah 30-24 in the paint.
  • The Tigers shot 60% from the field and scored 38 points in the second half.
Yes, But

Towson’s stronger second-half offense gave it several chances to close the gap, but Utah responded to a late three-pointer by Roseborough with one of its own, restoring a nine-point lead.

What’s Next

Towson returns to SECU Arena to host LIU on Monday, Nov. 9, at 7 p.m. for its home opener.

Bottom Line

The second-half response offers Towson a foundation to build on, but converting late rallies into a sustained comeback remains the challenge.
