Rattlers bite Eagles at the Snake Pit

TKU headed down south to Medicine Hat to take on the Rattlers in the Snake Pit. the Eagles looked to come out of the gate quickly and made a few fast buckets. Medicine Hat responded by Working the ball inside to quickly even up the match in the paint. When the Eagles worked the ball down quickly they were able to get to the basket and come away with quick points. When Medicine Hat got back in time they were effective in forcing outside shots. The Rattlers were able to pull away in the second quarter creating some distance before the half. 

In the second half the Rattlers were able to come out and build on their lead. While they continued to work the ball inside they started to hit from the field as well. The Eagles would not go away however as they stayed hanging on still in the game even if distantly. This all changed in the 4th as the Rattlers went cold. TKU started to bury 3 pointers as the Rattlers looked gassed. They went on a 15-2 run and came back within 3 points late in the fourth. The Lead however, was simply too much as the Rattlers hung on hitting free throws late to win 101-95
