Nelsonville, OH -- The Hocking College women’s basketball team (0-5) traveled to Buffalo, NY, looking for the first win of the year, but lost to the Erie CC Kats, 70-66, on Saturday afternoon (December 14).

The Hawks controlled the third quarter and took their first lead, 42-40, at 5:58 on a three-pointer by Jasmyne Anderson. The game was either tied or the Hawks led by two for much of the quarter. Erie would regain the lead with a Jaila Payne three-pointer at 2:14 left in the quarter. The Kats held a slim 51-50 lead at the end of the third quarter.
