MILWAUKEE, Wis - The MATC Stormers (3-2) men saw a 40-35 lead disappear in the second half as Olive-Harvey College downed the Stormers, 97-87. The difference in the second half was the effort by both teams in the paint.

The Stormers out-rebounded and outscored the Panthers in the paint in the first half. The second half was a very different story. Olive-Harvey won the second half rebounding battle 22-13 and outscored MATC in the paint, 48-20. The rebounding differential in the second half also led to Olive-Harvey scoring 14 more second chance points than MATC.

The Panthers also snagged 13 steals, nine of which came in the second half, and won the turnover battle by five.

Deonta Williams led MATC with 20 points. Evan Runkel finished with 14 points and Dionne Triggs had 10 points. Dominic Morse and Antoine Carlisle each had nine points.

The Stormers had no answer for Tyrone Hilson who scored 30 points, 26 of them coming in the second half. Hilson also had a team-high 13 rebounds. LaJuane Marshall finished with 23 points for Olive-Harvey College. 

MATC is on the road for three games and return to the Reiman Gymnasium on December 1st when they play Concordia University-Wisconsin's junior varsity team at 8 PM.
