Men's basketball overcome slow start to defeat Pitt CC 90-80

The canes went on the road today and won a big conference match against Pitt CC.  

The canes got off to a very slow start again and went down double figures.  Rallied back to take lead at the half.  Led most of second half but just couldn't put them away.  
 
 
Coach Dixon knows the team has to work on starting the game with more energy. Something they will continue to work over the holiday break.
 
"We'll take the road conference win for sure but we have to find a way to come out and play better to start the game.  We continue to fall behind and have to fight hard to dig ourselves out if the hole we've dug."
 
"Lewis really got it going on the 2nd half on the offensive end.  I'm asking a lot out of him and asking him to do some things he hasn't done in his past.  We are really gonna need him if we are going to do what we expect to do."
