CC falls at Chapman to close out 2012

Box Score Colorado College will look forward to 2013 after dropping its third consecutive game at Chapman University on the final day of 2012.

Playing for the third day in a row, the Tigers ran out of gas early in the second half and the Panthers pulled away for the 62-48 victory.

CC trailed just 36-33 after sophomore forward Chris Lesnansky scored two of his team-high 11 points 3:35 into the second half, but 6:18 expired before the Tigers struck again and CU took control of the game with a 12-2 run to open a 48-35 lead with 10:07 remaining.

After a bucket by junior point guard Ryan Milne cut Colorado College's deficit to 58-48 with 1:17 to play, the Panthers closed out the scoring with four consecutive free throws.
