HOLLY SPRINGS, MS- Rajan Hanstad had 11 second-half points off the bench and Myles Moore had a team-high 17 but it would not be enough as the Rust Bearcats downed the Majors 84-62 on Sunday.
Rust was lights out from three-point range on Sunday, draining 13 of 17 attempts. That was the difference as the Majors attacked the Bearcats' defense, continually getting to the foul line.
The Majors went a sizzling 23-25 from the charity stripe led by Moore who went 9-10 from the line and Dustin Aubert who went six for seven.
The loss drops the Majors to 5-10 overall on the season as they closed out non-conference play. They will welcome in Oglethorpe on Friday night for the first two-game conference weekend at home this season. Tip time between the Petrels and Majors is set for 8pm, following the women's game between the teams.
