Ontario—The Treasure Valley Community College men’s basketball were defeated 84-62 by Snow College Saturday in a nonleague game in Ontario.
The Chukars shot 43 percent from the field in the loss and had only one player logged double-digits in scoring on Nick Brothers’ 14 points.
The turnover bug bit the Chukars as they committed 24 in the game.
Snow College built up a hefty lead in the first half of play 53-17 and coasted to the win. TVCC outscored Snow College 45-31 in the second half, but it was too little too late for TVCC.
With the loss the Chukars fell to 1-4 on the year and will look to get back into the winners column Friday as they compete in the Southwest Crossover Tournament in Coos Bay. TVCC will open the tournament against Bellevue (7-0) at 3 p.m. PST.
