BOWLING GREEN — For the second consecutive Saturday, Bowling Green ground out a victory without leading scorer Justin Turner.
Daeqwon Plowden scored a career-best 23 points, Trey Diggs made another clutch 3-pointer, and Mike Laster’s end-game free throws helped the Falcons rally from a late deficit to defeat Oakland 68-65.
What happened: Bowling Green (7-2) held the lead for more than 30 minutes before Oakland rallied to force an up-and-down sequence at the end of the game.
The Falcons were in control and ahead by 11 midway through the second half when the Grizzlies (5-5) stormed back with a 16-2 run to take their first lead of the game.
