The Robinson Knights's recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Thursday after their fourth straight defeat. They fell to Hillsborough 76-70. The loss unfortunately continues a disappointing trend for Robinson in their matchups with the Terriers: they've now lost seven in a row.

Robinson lost despite a true team effort on the offense, the best among them being LaJesse Harrold, who dropped a double-double on 20 points and ten rebounds. As a matter of fact, that's the most points Harrold has scored all season. The team also got some help courtesy of Jaden Behel, who scored 16 points.

Robinson will square off against the Falcons at TBD on Tuesday. Dunedin is no doubt hoping to put an end to an eight-game streak of away losses. As for Hillsborough, they will head out on the road to square off against the Cougars at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Countryside knows how to get points on the board -- the squad has finished with flashy point totals in its past five matches -- so hopefully the Terriers like a good challenge.
