Kats Earn Win over Finger Lakes CC

The Erie Community College men's basketball team traveled to Canandaigua on Saturday and came away with a win over Finger Lakes Community College 68-65.

The Kats looked like they were well on their way to victory in the first half, at one point leading by as much as 16 points.  The second half saw the Lakers slowly chip away at the Kats lead, eventually tying the game with just over six minutes to play.  The remainder of the game was a back and forth contest between the teams.  

Sophomore Joshua Denis would hit a lay-up and then a free throw with 2 seconds left to play earning the Kats victory.  

The Kats opened their 2021-22 season on Wednesday with a 78-69 loss at Lakeland Community College. It was the first game for the Kats after the 2002-21 season was canceled due to the Covid pandemic. 

Erie will be action again on Sunday, November 7th when they visit Corning Community College for a 1:00 pm match-up.
