Philadelphia, PA - A hard charging Dragons team was unable to close out a huge fourth quarter comeback, falling to the Harcum Bears 54-52.

Harcum did a great job of keeping the Dragons off the scoreboard for the first three quarters as Howard couldn't buy a basket for much of the game. The Dragons caught fire in the fourth quarter, erasing a huge deficit to tie the game late. However, it was Harcum that was able to tighten up in the last two minutes and prevent the Dragons from closing out the comeback.

Kori People (Washington, D.C./Central) scored 27 points in the game with seven rebounds while Tajah Goodman (Washington, D.C./South Hagerstown) scored 11 with five assists. India Young (Springdale, MD/Charles H. Flowers) added seven points and eight rebounds in a game where the starters scored all 52 points.

The Dragons will look to rebound against a struggling Allegany team on Tuesday, February 8 at 7 PM.
