Battle ends in defeat: a close game but a sad end

The Bisons were ready. They had a chance to take the Battle of the Boulevard win from the Belmont Bruins. And if they did, they would have beaten the Bruins in both men’s and women’s basketball, a miraculous year.

The Bruins were ready too. They were not about to let the Bisons embarrass them again. The stage was set. The Battle was about to begin.
