Peninsula men

OREGON CITY, Ore. — The Peninsula men dropped a pair, though they rallied against Clackamas on Friday to make it close in the second half against an 8-2 team.

Clackamas got up 42-30 at the half, but the Pirates fought back in the second half, cutting the lead to 53-48 with 10:26 left after a Nyair Cleveland layup. That was as close as the Pirates could get, though, as Clackamas responded with three 2-pointers in two minutes to open the lead back up to 62-50 with 8:19 left. Peninsula would only get as close as eight points down the rest of the way.

Samuel Kahapea and Erik Kelly led the Pirates with 18 points each. Davien Harris-Williams had 11 and Malik Moore 10.

The men also lost Saturday to a hot-shooting 11-2 South Puget Sound team that hit an astounding 20 3-pointers. Three different Clippers hit at least five 3-pointers.
