versus the Paris College Dragons, leading 23-15 halfway through the first
half.  The Ponies were 11 of 14 from the charity stripe, and shot a high
percentage from the perimeter.  As the final minutes of the half approached
the Ponies were plagued by turnovers and defensive miscues, they went into
the half trailing 34-42.

During the second half Paris began to shoot a high percentage from the
perimeter as the Ponies' shot percentages decreased.  Due to offensive
miscues and foul trouble the Ponies saw their deficit increase, the Ponies
lost the game 65-83.  The Ponies were lead in scoring by Israel Omigie (23)
and followed by, Tommy Heard III (11) and Joshua Morris (10).
