It was March basketball in its purist of forms on Tuesday night as the No. 13 Black Hills State University men’s basketball team overcame its second consecutive double digit halftime deficit to defeat UCCS 74-73 in the RMAC Men’s Basketball Tournament Quarterfinals in A2 Arena. The Yellow Jackets, who had swept the regular season series against the Mountain Lions, found themselves trailing by 15 points at the halftime break but used their defensive pressure to shut down the UCCS offense in the second half. The Green & Gold held the UCCS offense to just 36.7 percent shooting in the final 20 minutes and recorded seven of their 11 blocked shots in the game. The 11 blocked shots are the most in the school’s NCAA Division II era, and the second-most all-time in program history behind only a 17-block performance against Sioux Falls on January 21, 1994.
