Royals lose to Lafayette 62-60 in OT

The Mason County Royals lost to the Lafayette Generals 62-60 in overtime tonight at The Fieldhouse in a game that had 10 ties and 20 lead changes. Both teams were missing a starter- Mason County was without Josh Harris due to an injury while Lafayette 6'7" freshman starter Jackson Davis and reserve Tranard Chester sat out the game for disciplinary reasons. Another starter and another reserve quit the team earlier in the week. The Generals led 62-58 with 33.5 seconds left. Tyler Black's putback cut the deficit to two with 3.1 seconds to go. After a timeout, Mason County forced a turnover with 1.1 second to play, but missed a three-pointer at the buzzer. Lafayette senior guard Dee Yarbrough scored a game-high 27 points. Treg Setty led Mason County in scoring with 17 points before fouling out with 2:30 left in overtime. Jordan Gilbert and Tyler Black scored 17 points apiece. Mason County hosts Simon Kenton Tuesday night.
