After Monday night’s electrifying, up-and-down home win against Whitinsville Christian, the No. 26 KIPP basketball team met its match on the road Thursday night, falling to No. 7 Clinton by a score of 66-53.

Despite the loss, Tolu Abosede was a Panther on a mission, scoring 22 points against a tight Clinton defense. Trosky Peña added 11 points, while Jaylen Guscott and Sylvester Ogbemudia each hauled in 12 rebounds.

“Played extremely hard, held a five-point lead at half, and just didn’t have enough to withhold it,” said KIPP coach Moody Bey after the Division 4 matchup. “Thank you to everybody who supported us this season.”
