Your CCBC Dundalk Lions are now 18-4 and 6-2 in the conference after defeating our rival campus CCBC Catonsville 59-52 on Saturday. This puts the Lions win streak at 11 games.

No Lion could get it going, 8 players scored but they only amassed a measly 17 points. When the Lions were down 10-4 5 minutes in, it was an ugly start and Coach King called a timeout. The Lions would take 10 minutes to double their 4 points and in that time the Cardinals tripled theirs. The score went from 10-4 to 30-8 which was the Cardinals largest lead in the game. The Lions offense came together the last 5 minutes but the Cardinals didn't slow down as the score at half was 38-17.
